Rover Improve Product Appeal For 2005
Published: 17th December 2004
Rover 45
Engine choices include the 84 and 103Ps 1.4-litre, the 109Ps 1.6-litre K Series petrol or a 2.0-litre turbodiesel. An Ash or Smokestone interior can be chosen with Black Oak or Burr Walnut trim, dependent on the exterior colour chosen.
Rover’s iconic ‘urban on-roader’ Streetwise is also available in GLi and GSi specification. Burnished or Chagall Blue painted centre console and door pulls underline the younger approach of Streetwise, with its command driving position and new Target interior design with matching twill door casings. The GLi model has extra rear headrests and body coloured door mirrors. The GSi model is upgraded with air conditioning, driver’s seat height and lumbar adjustment and electric rear windows.
All models are available in six exterior colours, the popular Starlight Silver, Tempest Grey, Sonic Blue, Firefrost Red, Platinum Gold and Midnight Blue.
The Rover 45 perpetuates the high specification theme with a GLi model, exclusively built around the 1.4-litre 5-door bodystyle. Equipped with leather trim to the seating, steering wheel and gearknob, the GLi also features a CD tuner, controlled by steering wheel mounted remote controls. Electric front windows, bright tread strips and body-coloured door mirrors complete this high value model, available at £10,995.
From £12,145, the 45 GSi model comes with all the GLi features, and adds Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) air conditioning, distinctive chrome door mirrors with electronic adjustment and demist, and 15” Turbine alloy wheels.
16” nine-spoke alloy wheels are an extra optional choice.
The Rover 75 is an elegant expression of a beautiful style and interior environment. All models now include extra equipment that includes head airbag protection (ITS), electric front and rear windows and a leather gear knob. SmartNav is also standard on all, except the entry Classic model. Connoisseur models are now specified with a full leather interior, heated seats and electric power folding door mirrors.
