The TRUTH Behind the ROVER SD1 Controversy - British Leyland's Worst Failure?

Video Description

In this video we cover one of the most debated topics regarding the british car industry and its decline the Rover SD1 which some have called one of the worst cars ever made and declared one of the biggest British Leyland disasters. The Rover SD1 though isn't a bad car through Motorsport, sales success it proved itself against all odds to be a mainstay of British cars, we cover long forgotten stories from Solihull and analyse the anatomy of what some have called a failure. Just a note; not all was bad with British leyland and the British car industry isn’t dead it is very much alive. Regarding MG Rover and the many other eras I covered as much as I could in the small recap but longer videos will be produced covering these eras.
