The Rover badge on the grille is as far as you need go.

You shouldn't even bother with a test drive.

For the seller, it's a *superb* price, if they can get some mug to pay it.

Start at the Rover badge at the front, and the Rover badge at the back and
look at *Everything* inbetween. When you have done that, leave and find
another car that doesnt display a Rover badge....
