The Model: The Rover 75 was manufactured from 1998 to 2005. It is a large family car and came in four-door saloon and five-door estate body styles. The 75 featured a range of engines from 1.8- to 2.5-litre sizes. Petrol engines provided were Rover’s four-cylinder K series in 1.8-litre guise and the quad cam KV6, offered in either short-stroke 2.0 which this one is or the revised 2.5-litre formats. The 2.0-litre was later dropped on introduction of the 1.8-litre turbo for emissions purposes.
