  Rover 800 - Biocrawler
The Rover 800 series was an executive class automobile introduced by the Austin Rover Group in 1986.
The Rover 800 was intended as a replacement for the aging Rover SD1.
Although the 800 had fallen behind the opposition considerably (few mechanical changes were made, apart from the introduction of the KV6 engine in 1996), it was a steady seller until 1998, when it was replaced by the Rover 75.

 Rover 800 PG1 Quaife ATB differential - Quaife Engineering
Quaife ATB differential for Rover 800 PG1 is suitable for Rover 800 models using PG1 gearbox.
Rather, the Rover 800 PG1 Quaife ATB differential automatically biases the torque away from the spinning wheel across the axle, to a constantly varying degree, and never locks.
The Rover 800 PG1 Quaife ATB differential has many benefits over a standard open differential, including maximising traction and minimizing wheelspin, eliminating torque steer and snatching in front wheel drive cars compared to conventional LSD units, and a maintenance-free design which retains the standard oil lubrication.

 Rover 800 index page
The Rover 800 was the high-technology replacement for the SD1, and marked an important change in the relationship between Honda and BL.
The 800 was the result, and although it looked very different from the Honda Legend, the two cars shared much in the way of architecture.
The idea of the CCV was to preview the upcoming Rover 800 saloon and signal to the company's dealers interntionally that they were considering a coupe version of the new car.

  Rover Torque - for all Modern Rover Owners'
The Rover 800 was designed in conjunction with Honda Motor Company of Japan, they sold their version of the vehicle under the 'Legend' name tag.
Staff at Rover, formerly demoralised by the 'badge engineering' exercises, were more than surprised to learn that the designing and building of the new vehicle wouldn't just be a case of Honda showing Rover how to build cars.
Even though the 800 is such a large vehicle, the 2.0 litre engine normally seems quite happy and 'perky' to pull the body weight around, providing you don't want stunning brands hatch performance.

 Rover 75 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 75 was launched in 1998 when Rover was under the ownership of BMW and was designed to be a replacement model for both the Rover 600 and 800 lines.
The car was developed almost entirely in-house by Rover with little influence from BMW, although the fact that it possessed a central tunnel in its chassis lead to comparisons with the rear wheel drive BMW 5 Series.
This grille was said to be inspired by the Rover V8s of the past but caused some controversy, being similar to the then new style of larger Audis.

 Rover 800 development story
Despite all that, the Rover 800 was generally greeted with enthusiasm from the press and public, but soon the launch of the car was soured by the fact that, just like with the Rover 3500 during 1976, people who actually wanted to buy the new car were denied the opportunity because of limited supplies.
Rover had gaffed — and although the astute marketing men employed by the re-focussed company headed by Graham Day quickly rectified this situation, it was a situation that did take time to put right in the minds of buyers.
Well, the Rover CCV had been designed as a car for the Americans, but productionising this version of the Rover 800 posed insurmountable problems — and as time passed, the design of the coupé prototype became increasingly conservative.

 Mars Exploration Rover Mission: The Mission
The apparent cause was that the rover's central processing unit was overworked as several tasks were running in parallel at the time.
The rover spent part of the week filling in sections of the rover deck for the "McMurdo panorama." Electrical power from the rover's solar array has been holding steady at about 280 watt-hours per sol (a hundred watt-hours is the amount of electricity needed to light one 100-watt bulb for one hour).
The rover scanned the atmosphere for opacity caused by dust and scanned the sky and ground with the miniature thermal emission spectrometer.

The 'Cyclops' Rover (so called because of its centrally mounted foglamp) was the forerunner of one of the most successful of Rover's car ranges and it would be this 75 that, until now, was the best remembered.
