Rover 75 Diesel - what to look for?
Discussion
I am beginning to look at a 75 diesel as a daily runner.
Is there anything to look out for?
Does the engine have a cambelt or chain?
My mileage is relatively low (have a Z4 for fun), is a 75 diesel with 125k miles a safe option for 3+ years?
What are they like to drive? - better than 1.8 or 2.0V6 petrol?
Any other advice greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Don't get the 1.8 as they're prone to over-heating and cylinder head gasket failure. Don't get the 2.0 V6 either as they're quite thirsty. The 2.5 V6 is a nice engine but the diesel is the best compromise on performance/economy.
