Hi Roverists:

The three main reasons that the Rover 3500S (NADA) model failed in the
US was the AED, final drive units, and the Jaguar XJ6 which was in
direct competion.  In the 35 years that we've owned our 3500S (NADA)
Rover we've received only favorable comments concerning the hood
scoops.  It's interesting that Jaguar has continued to be a sought
after car because of it's looks, and not it's build quality.  Rover
was styled down so as not to be flashy.
