Farmer with all that knowledge you have why can't you do what I just did  
enter "Sterling cars" in your search engine and you will come up with this. 
I here you guys always bragging about your High IQs but I have never seen  
any of you ever look anything up on the net and when I do you get all upset and  
bad mouth me about it. .

The  Sterling motor car was a US brand produced by the Rover company of the 
UK. It  was sold from 1987 to 1991. During this period Rover was in 
collaboration with  Honda of Japan.
The Sterling was a derivative of the Rover 800-series and was  developed 
exclusively for the American market.
The model was unpopular due to  its alleged poor build quality and feeble 
performance (compared to other US  cars) and was discontinued in 1991, although 
it remained popular in Europe, and  was kept in production until 1998, when it 
was replaced by the Rover 75.
US  sales hit a high of nearly 15,000 cars in 1988 but fell to less than 
2,000 for  in 1991.
Still seen on the U.S roads these vehicles (unlike most "orphan"  vehicles) 
remain maintainable as they are mechanically almost identical to the  Acura  
Legend.
