No, Rover packed up a while ago your right though, i am guilty of misconceptions, but the Chevys we get here are just Daewoo's with a new badge.
I can only go on what magazines or tv programs say with regards to American cars, and mostly they say the build quility is less than impressive and handling is generaly set up for American roads, not our shoddy roads in the UK, we also have somethings called 'corners' here, aparently the American cars dont like those |

Haha...What are these corners you speak of? I need those nice cushy suspensions so I can keep my Big Mac propped up on my stomach. Seriously, it does get frustrating here with all the strait line guys. We finally start building some cars that can handle and everyone takes them to the drag strip. It is easier and less expensive, hell my last track day at Road Atl. was $250 (roughly 125 pounds). BUT, I saw an M3 with drag radials on it the other day. If that doesn't make you sick to your stomach, nothing will. I live at the foothills of the mountains though, so I can get my fix when needed. About a year ago I was watching the Top Gear episode (like all Americans have to ) where Clarkston reviewed the C6. He didn't like it....or the Z06 about a year later. That just breaks my heart. |
