Rover 55 / Roewe 550
just finished drawing this it is based heavily on the roewe 550 but with major styling changes so here it is the Rover 55.
Roewe
just been browsing on the internet and I stumbled across the Roewe 950,750,350 and that got me thinking if the deal between SIAC and mg rover had gone threw then the Roewes could have been the new rover 95,75,35 what could have been if you want more information on roewe click here.

Land rover
Just a few land rover drawings top one is a Freelander replacement and the other one is a defender replacement.
British cars
If you are interested in British cars I have to recommend Austin Rover online it has all you need to know about British cars and is just a great website so give it a go you might learn something.
Tourer Tourer Tourer
The rover 75 estate could have been exploited into so many different guises a while ago I drew a one I thought would be feasible the Rover 75 tourer off road.
MG = Sports cars
MG should be making sports cars but at the moment they seem to think that what we need is a saloon and a small cheap hatchback so since there busy doing that I thought why not design a sports car myself so that's what I did so here it is the MG G V6 catchy I know.
Another one
the Rover SD1 rally car would have been much better than the fat metro that was the 6R4 with a mid mounted V8 turbo it would have thrashed group B
Rover 600/65
I did this not that long ago it is a simple Rover 600 facelift to bring it up to par with the Rover 75 and squeeze a bit more profit from the platform. So ladies and gentlemen I give you the Rover 65 Vitesse V6 probably would have lasted to about 2000 and probably would have outsold the Rover 45.
Rover 55
Just a little sketch I did for a Rover 45 re skin properly would have kept sales up till the RDX60 arrived. I can dream anyway tell me what you think in the comments.

Current project

Rover 75 Vitesse V8
The Rover 75 Vitesse is one of my more recent projects it uses the same engine as the Rover 75 V8 but supercharged it also has a modernised front bumper which is more modern and less imposing than the standard Rover 75 V8 front bumper the other main modifications is the lowering of the roofline and making it a fastback aka a hatchback and a twin exhaust at the rear. Inside it is the same story where there was once wood now there is brushed aluminium and gone is the cream leather sofas of yesteryear there is know sporty black leather bucket seats finished with patches of quilted leather to put you in that sporty environment.
Rover 35
so here is my first drawings for the blog I did them a long time ago and I am sorry about the picture quality I designed it a successor to the rover 25 I took inspiration from the SD1 for the front bumper and the window line this would be my phase two in modernising the rover range by the way the car looks quite dumpy in the pictures its just the angle I took the pictures.
