David Wilkins<p>Today we move forward to 2003 and another attempt by MG Rover to boost the appeal of the now aging Rover 25. After introducing an MG variant, the ZR, in 2001, the company tried to give the core Rover version a bit of attitude as well by offering the (optically at least) toughened up Streetwise model. Once more, quite a lot was achieved with inexpensive modifications. I can offer you a choice of red (2018 NEC Classic Car Show) or green (<a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/FOTU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FOTU</span></a> 2023).</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/davidsdailycar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>davidsdailycar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/MG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MG</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Rover" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Rover</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WeirdCarMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WeirdCarMastodon</span></a></p>

David Wilkins<p>In 1989, the successor to yesterday’s Rover 200 arrived, a car code-named R8. Unlike the first 200 and the Triumph Acclaim before it, R8 wasn’t an off-the-shelf Honda design but the result of a more genuinely collaborative development effort between Rover and Honda. It was the most successful BL/Rover product of the modern era. Seen here at the NEC Classic Car Show, 2024 in 3-door (red) and 5-door hatch 200 series versions. More R8 tomorrow.

David Wilkins<p>Yesterday, I explained how, in 1981, BL replaced the Triumph Dolomite with the Acclaim, a licence-built Honda Ballade. When Honda introduced the second-generation Ballade in 1984, it was logical that BL should adopt this car as the Acclaim’s successor as well. The big change was that the new car would be a Rover, the 200 series, not a Triumph. Photo taken: NEC Classic Car Show, 2023.
