The ROVER 25 (1999-04) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.4I 84 OLYMPIC S is a compact five-door petrol hatchback, aimed at buyers wanting practical, affordable everyday transport. It sits in the small-family-car class, between a basic city car and roomier larger hatchbacks, and offers easier rear-seat access than a three-door for passengers and luggage. mycarcheck.com has recorded 11 look-ups covering seven distinct VINs, a modest sample rather than a full picture of the market. Within those checks, the average private-sale valuation was £300, average recorded mileage 85,000 miles, and average annual mileage 3,000 miles. Cars had an average of three to four previous keepers. The 1.4-litre engine suits urban trips, commuting and journeys; its five-door layout works for couples, small families and first-time buyers seeking space on a budget. Against Ford Fiesta and Vauxhall Corsa rivals, the Rover offers British character. As with any older car, check condition and service history carefully before buying.
