What are your thoughts on the Rover Sterling cars that were sold in the US?

Sterling Cars, 1987-1991. The Rover 800 series was an executive-class car that had been co-developed with Honda, the Japanese version becoming the first generation Honda/Acura Legend. Because Rover's earlier entry to the US, with the SD1 had been a disaster that had damaged the reputation of the Rover brand in the US it was decided to market the 800 in the US using a new brand, Sterling (the Rover Sterling was the flagship 800 model for European markets). US versions of the 800 used Honda's V6 in 2.5 and, from 1988, 2.7 litre form. Sterling sales in the US were initially quite strong however early cars developed build quality and reliability problems. There were also corrosion issues and Sterling fell to the bottom of J.D. Power surveys while its sibling, the Acura Legend, topped them (in 1988). Sales dropped off quickly from a peak of 14,000 cars in 1987. The Rover Group persevered with the Sterling project for several more years and though the quality issues were addressed the reputational damage was done and finally Sterling Cars withdrew from the US market in 1991. The Rover 800 Coupé was developed as part of the second generation 800 range specifically for the US market though it was never sold there.

[Pt.2]

IT WAS A LATE NIGHT of february. It was cold and windy. no one dared to go out tonight. not even the professors. by midnight the wind was gushing on the windows of dorms and common rooms. Leaving only the cackling fire to be the source of warmth.

Remus Lupin can't sleep. He opens the door out the dorm room and swiftly escapes out. He walkes down the stairs to the dim lit common room. He was about to sit on the couch when he noticed a presence on the sitting area. Curious and cautious he quietly peeps over the person. or so in other words—girl. Not just any girl it was the weird Sterling girl.

She was a fellow prefect who was sorted into the house of godric, thus her parents were smart ravenclaw's following rowena's path. She had flowing hair that was quite long/short. She had the perfect face of an angel. Almost looking like heaven in descriptive words. She was friends with Pandora and Junior.

Remus mumbled some things under his breath and started backing away when suddenly he hit the table causing the small plant to fall down. also leading for the—now awake—girl to stir and look at him.

"r-remus?" She asked softly. he could tell her voice was still—a little— groggy from just waking up. "why aren't you sleeping?" She asked a little worried.

"Oh. Um– I can't sleep. I had a bad dream." He said clearly lying to the poor girl. She stood straight still sitting down rubbing her eyes a little.

"Is there any way I could help you sleep?" She asked with a sweet voice that could captivate even a snake. Her sweet voice was soft and steady, in other words she didn't struggle to talk to him. It made his heart go boom–boom.

"Um–well , when I was young my mum used to sit with me and sing me a song. She used to rub my back." He said sitting beside her. She muttered a quick spell under her breath , levitating a blanket over the pair.

"there, I could sing you a song to get you to fall asleep." She said almost as she was talking to an ant. Remus nodded and leaned his head on the girls shoulder. But quickly took it off. He looked at the girl asking for permission. She raised her eye brows as a yes indication. Taking the sign he put his head on her shoulder, and she wrapped her arm around his covered waist.

She started softly singing a lovely song with a tune as perfect as her. Remus started slowly closing his eyes, eventually closing them fully. in this exact moment he felt safe in her presence. He felt like he was aloud to be a normal human and not like a monster he thinks he is. He snuggles his head in the small crook of her neck, putting his hand on to his lap. He remembered this song as a song his mother used to sing before he slept.

I wanna sing a song that'd be just ours

But I sang 'em all to another heart

And I wanna cry , I wanna fall in love

But all my tears have been used up

Oh another love, another love

All my tears have been used up . . .

She finishes the song there finding the softly snoring boy already asleep. She smiles and lays him down on the couch draping the soft white blanket over him. She looks at him lovingly and leans in forward. Crouching down next to him giving him a short , sweet peck on the cheek. She leans back and smiles at him.

"sweet dreams remus . . . " her voice trails of as she is still sleepy. She yawns a bit and stands up making her way to the small shelf and taking out a book. She rips a piece of blank paper and writes him a small note , intentionally finishing it of with a gracious heart. Then she places the book back and makes her exit towards the stairs to the dormitories. Mumbling small wishes of her choice.

fun fact: remus used to have a crush on the sterling girl but moved on realising it was no use. (We'll see about that)
