Less than a quarter of one percent
Just looking at production figures for the 75.
I am surprised to learn that the 1.8 turbo automatic tourer makes up less than a quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the total production volume. Making the model, I think, the rarest 75 model made, excluding the prototypes and kit cars of course. Early morning number crunching Yes there is not a lot going on here at the moment |

Rich can you do me a favour?
According to Longbridge figures there was only one Arran White 2.5V6 Auto Club SE. Ok so mine is a Cowley car and seeing as your not busy any chance of trying to find out how many of my spec were built there. I'll check back in ten minutes

Albeit a manual, I had a new one on loan from the local MGR dealer whilst they did the head gasket on a newish MGF that I had at the time. They had a backlog of work, so I had the car for about 3 weeks. It must have been around 2002. Not a weedy engine though, I was very impressed with it. I guess that car planted the seed for my subsequent Rover 75 ownership.

All tourers are 2nd rate vehicles, who ever thought a tourer was a pedigree. they are workhorses.
