Rover in the past had that knack of being able to make you desperately want the "re-vamped" model and trade in your now out-of-date version. They were always able to transform the model and make it so much better than its forbear. Examples would be the SD1, the LandRover Defender, the late original Mini's, and to an extent the Rover-ised Montegos.
I'm afraid that these wizards of re-hashing were taken wholesale, along with the Gaydon R&D facility when BM bogged back off to Duetschland!
The '04 75 is OK(ish). I hate the fact that the MG ZT suits the new styling better. Maybe its a different direction for the company and Rover's will be re-badged MG's, rather than the other way around.
I'm sure that this design will eventually grow on me. But at present I'll stick to my thicker chromed grille and my quads on my 25 thanks!
Oh - and I hate that "Just had a new graphics package on my PC" Rover badge!!!

Nice enough, more interested in changes to the interior if any.
Don't like the grille, makes it look like a cheap Eastern European car.

Need to see the car in the flesh? I do like the interior, maybe because they haven't changed it to much.

I would like to see the sedan rear?

It looks to me like someone grafted on the grille and lights off a Skoda. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it", I beleive someone once said......

Not so sure about the 75 facelift looks much better on the MG 75 range they should have done the 45 range first it is looking very old now, they also need an a mid range type of estate that fits between the 45 and 75 MG Rover are losing out in this sector of the market!
