Maybe it's where I've lived and who I mix with, but no-one has ever made a disparaging remark to me about any of the Rovers I've been driving since 2004. The nearest was a garage who diagnosed HGF by glancing at my 820 through the window.
In fact people are nothing but complimentary about my 75 but this may be because they are cocooned in soul-sucking grey, black and silver plastic with black carpets and dark grey cloth seats. Like my neighbour with a new VW that that's been in the garage 6 times with engine and gearbox warning lights. That came on again yesterday.
