If you've seen watchdog you'll understand it's likely the peugeots spontaneously combusted . I think Clarky said the same thing on TGPJH said:Don't recall Brits burning them on the streets either, unlike the French and their cars.

Apparently yes and was quite successful, though Rover never quite got round to bolting on an unfeasibly large turbo to it. Maybe if they had they would still be in business today. Or maybe I should stop messing around on the internet and get on with some work.blassberg said:was this new model ever released?

Wake up and smell the coffee mate. Rover could NEVER compete with MB. My old man had a string of them, P4s, a P5 and an SD1. My uncle was a staunch Mercedes man. I recall going for rides in Uncle Petes many Mercedes and thought that in terms of quality, Mercedes were streets ahead of Rover.
Its Darwinian, I'm afraid John. Survival of the fittest. Rover could not hack it in todays competitive market. RIP.
