Under that sleek skin was the Rover V-8, naturally this car's primary motivation and namesake (so equipped, the SD1 was marketed as the 3500), although it would later receive four- and six-cylinder engines and wear 2000, 2300, 2400, and 2600 badges. Rather than use the P6's unstressed-panel monocoque, fully independent suspension, and four.

(first posted 8/25/2016) Orphan cars hold a special allure for enthusiasts who appreciate the unusual. And there is perhaps no more fascinating orphan than Rover's US-market 3500. A groundbreaking car when introduced in Europe in 1976, this premium British sedan took nearly 4 years to make it to North America… and then nearly everything went wrong.

1980 Other Makes 3500 Additional Info: This may be the nicest Rover SD1 in the country. The dash is not discolored or cracked and is original. The headliner has been redone as well as the seats and door panels. I had the door panels done in vinyl like the European cars because the cloth deteriorated quickly and does not hold up.

Despite being unusual, the Rover 3500 deserved better in the US market. Brought over as the Jaguar-Rover-Triumph entity was imploding upon itself, the 3500 offered a terrific blend of sportiness and practicality.
