Rover 200 / 25

Uncommon card · No. 148651

The Rover 200 Series, and later the Rover 25, are a series of small family cars that were produced at the Longbridge factory by former British manufacturer Rover from 1984 until 2005 over four distinct generations. The Rover 200 was conceived in partnership with Honda originally as a four-door saloon car based on the Honda Ballade. The second generation introduced in 1989 was made in three or five-door hatchback forms, as well a coupé and cabriolet (in relatively small numbers). Its sister model, the Honda Concerto was built on the same production line. The third generation Rover 200 was introduced in 1995 and was developed independently by Rover on the platform of its predecessor. This car was downsized and was available as a three or five-door hatchback. The model was facelifted in 1999 and renamed as the Rover 25, with a higher performance variant sold as the MG ZR with mechanical changes to the suspension. Production ceased in 2005 when MG Rover went into administration.
