The Rover 75 was received well by the international press, not just the UK. MG Rovers failure to jump on top of the K series engine head gasket problem, while spending what little funds they had on developing the MG SV was their most shocking failure in my opinion. And that opinion is re-inforced by the 75 being labelled a badly screwed together car. That simply isn’t true. BMW knew the model was important for the future of Rover, and monitored the models development closely. And even with Rover going through a sales crisis. they held the launch of the 75 back for a significant amount of time to resolve some fairly trivial issue with the design .With that in mind, it is rather inplausable that BMW allowed the model to be launched 'badly screwed together' isnt it?.

Who owned Rover when they designed the 75 then???
