And to complicate things even more the nearest Rover shop is 2 hours away driving 50 mph (~3,000 rpms).

Is there anyway to bypass this transmission fault limitation? I have exhausted everything I can do and I need to take it to someone that knows way more than me and has a shop with tools!!!
You can try a hard reset but it will likely come back once you try to drive it, sounds like you have a serious trans problem as limp mode locks you into 3rd which still makes it driveable.

loanrangie asked if shifter gear position matches what is shown on dash - does it? Did you try manual selecting gears (sport mode)? Maybe asked, but do you have any fluid leaks? If the mechatronics sleeve fails and gets soaked with trans fluid, I have heard of issues. Also being stuck in a gear can likewise be a sign of low fluid although usually you get a lot of engine flaring too....
