I don't know, Its not a bad idea to fix it and then sell it but it depends how much you have into it. Its worthless as these vehicles are not worth anything for parts as the engines are the problem child and they all break down.

I think you should fix it. Your still making payments..... Are you saying thats the cost at the dealer? Find a independent rover mechanic and see what he can do.
