Honad/ rover 90,s tie up (cloning)I - rugman 52
I Read a report on honest johns about honda accords. I have a 95 american built aerodeck estate. (2.2 auto) The article said the rover 600 was the accord under the skin, is this the case , and if so are parts interchangable ??? I see some good condition 600 cars at very cheap money.
I geuss thats because rover is over. Hmmm But would these cars actually be Accords with a different body. ???.... And are they as reliable as my accord which apart from wear parts is bullet proof. Apreciate your comments . ta the rugman

It's true that the 600 was essentially a reskinned '93-98 Swindon Accord (although some had Rover engines), but I expect a 1995 US Accord is quite a different beast, as Honda (among others) have a habit of using the same model name for quite different cars built in the USA.
