So rover not the best for build quality then!

On the subject the one thing I always hated about rovers is their gearbox's, in particular first and reverse

You're spot on there. The gearbox is useless, I thought it was hard selecting reverse on VW's but I've already crunched the gears on this one about 4 times, mind you once you're past 2nd you dont even need the clutch to change gears...

Oh and the dash rattles.

Man that quality is bad. How can they mount something that will actually *melt* in warm weather?

Wonder if it happens on BM's to, or are these cheapo bits they used after BMW gave them the company.
