"When Rover Met BMW is a 5-part documentary series produced by the BBC in 1996. German motor company BMW had bought Rover in 1994 and the series follows the sometimes fraught relationship between the two."
"In the final programme of the series, Anglo-German relations are futher strained when Rover’s chief executive resigns. Will BMW take the opportunity to shuffle the Rover board? Meanwhile, Rover tests its latest, top-secret design."

Thanks for uploading! My dad makes a feature in this I have been hoping someone would upload this for ages
My 75 V6 is absolutely amazing, looking forward to POL in April 23
Money pit
What car would they have been testing land rover freelander prototype maybe?
This is fascinating. John Towers and Nick Stephenson, they would be back......such missed opportunities with Rover Group. Kept together, MINI, LandRover and Rover/MG could have been very successful, even if LR and Mini would have kept Rover afloat very much in the way LR keeps Jaguar afloat these days.
Pity they didn't include a test centre for head gaskets.
They did...It was called Lotus Cars Ltd - Project Elise...proved to be very successful when they spec'd their own head gasket.
Remember this episode secret testing the Land Rover Freelander
Sounds like the headgasket was gone on that test car too!! You couldn't make it up!
1:57 The briefest of glimpse of the back end of the R40/Rover 75....???
Definitely, I don't think the clay model was finished though as there's no bumper detail.
ROVER 👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑
And to think people can just use a drone now
Rover you put the key in ignition it doesn’t turn over
I had 75 for two years with no problems
