Rover Cars 1945 to 2005
A Pictorial History. A Pictorial History
Synopsis
This comprehensive pictorial overview of Rover cars and car-derived vans covers the 60 years from 1945 to 2005. It describes and illustrates all the great classic Rovers up to and including the SD1, and goes on to look at the models inherited from British Leyland that attracted Rover badges. It finishes with the models designed in conjunction with Honda and with the later British-designed cars - and even the final City Rover. There is also some consideration of some Rover models that were designed but, for various reasons, did not enter production and can now only be seen as prototypes in museums.
One of Veloce's popular Pictorial History series, this book describes all the postwar models with illustrations and technical data for each one.

What Reviewers Are Saying
Taylor's writing is authoritative and attractive and it draws the reader in. This is one of those books you find yourself browsing for far longer than intended. - Kieron Fennelly. It's easy to think of Rovers as dowdy, ugly and dated, but this reminds us that over its 100-plus years the brand made some interesting cars. It's concise and precise. - Auto Express. The book accurately describes itself as a pictorial history, and really good it is, too. The range and the quality of the photos is excellent, and many are true rarities are in there. The story is explained in sufficient detail to raise interest. This is a Tardis of a book. There's much more inside than appears on the outside. This is one excellent work both to read an reference. - The Classic Motoring Review. this is a very good brief history of a long-lasting British motor car. - Classic driver (monthly). this book describing all the postwar models with illustrations and technical data, makes it a must for Rover enthusiasts for their library or for keeping in their glovebox as a quick reference - Norm Mort - Freelance.
