The Rover 200/25 and 400/45 were based on the Civic's platform. The 600 was based on the Accord and the 800 shared many parts with the first-generation Honda/Acura Legend. Rover was in such dire straights that they needed Honda to provide much of their engineering. The later 25/45 are claimed to be mostly Rover parts, but they do trace their heritage back to the Civic. The 75 was developed under BMW and has no signifcant Honda components.
