I know they made a Civic Sedan based Rover, but did Rover also sell a CRX based car? Or a Civic 3dr based car?

I can't answer that conclusively. On the Mini site i frequent they have different sections for the engine types being swapped into Minis. There is a complete section on Rover conversions but I don't look into that section very often. Probably I should. UK Honda produced various versions under the Rover mark. But that's about all I can tell you for now. JS

1.4 spi, 1.4 8v, 1.6 K series, 1.8 vvc

This is the 1.8 vvc

1.4 K series

Rover 400 with a 1.6 twin cam k series

Wow... that Rover 400 almost looks like a 92+ prelude, doesn't it?

Question... if the Rover engine is produced by Honda, why is it backwards from all the other Honda engine configs except the longitudinal and K-series mounting?

How about we just agree to respect each other's opinion?Even though yours is so obviously wrong...
