Hi, I am a proud owner of an used R75 1.8 (non-turbo, petrol) in Singapore. I find my car quite sluggish in term of acceleration. I want to improve the performance especially in terms of torque and horsepower. However Rover seem to be an uncommon car in Singapore. Therefore the aftermarket parts are very hard to find, much less the performance parts. Can anyone enligthen me how to impove or modify my Rover? Any websites of Rover parts dealers that I look up? Thanks...

Hi,
Yes, although the 1.8 is not powerful per se,
It is a very stable & comfortable car. At 100km/h, it feels like 80km/h. If you were to start off with another car (eg. Toyota Camry 2.0A) beside you, you would be surprised that it actually pull off quite well. The sound insulation is so much better than many cars that I have driven. The bad news is that it is so quiet and it is very easy to pick up the slightest noise around you.
