Motorpoint of Derby have 1/2 price rovers with aircon for only £4499. You get one year warranty from them. Not bad for a new car eh?
What do you think?

    Sounds very good, if it's the 25. The City Rover though, I'm not so sure about, when it's an Indian car underneath and regarded as a bit of a dog, that £4500 is probably about what it's worth. Seeing as you can get a Kia Picanto after haggling for under 5 grand it's still not cheap enough, as the Kia is by far the better car.

    Which model is it? As I say if it's the 25 that's a cracker :)

    Hmmm, it's the City Rover. D'oh! And it has the 1.4 K-series engine, the one with the worst reputation for blowing head-gaskets.

    This is not a good car. However, for a brand new motor that's highly specified, it may be worth a punt for some folk.

    The airfields full of pre-registered & virtually unused Rovers are now starting to appear in auction.

    They are representing VERY good value - or not - depending on your opinions about their future worth.

    The auctions aren't for the general public - just Rover dealers & approved buyers.
