The ROVER 45 (2000-05) 4DR SALOON 1.8 16V IMPRESSION S is a compact four-door family saloon from Rover’s final years. In the UK used-car market, it is now a budget older-car choice, offering a traditional boot and more formal styling than the hatchbacks that dominate this size class for small families. With its 1.8-litre petrol engine, the Impression S suits commuting, local errands and family duties; the saloon layout appeals to drivers who prefer a separate luggage boot. It is less contemporary than Ford Focus or Vauxhall Astra rivals, but still offers a comfortable driving experience and a relatively uncommon badge. mycarcheck.com records 20 look-ups across 10 distinct VINs, a useful but limited sample.
