'Marmite' Cars you have owned

Post by Grumpyowl » Fri Mar 02, 2018 9:56 pm

Back in the 70's I needed to buy a car quick and opted for something practical.

N reg orange with dark blue plastic seats Morris Marina Estate. :oops:

It'd be a classic now :rofl:

After only a few months I bumped it on black ice.
P/X it and bought a Vauxhall Magnum 2300 coupe yellow black vinyl roof.

Back when I was 17/18 I had three of those bad boys.. All "TC's" with the 1.8 B series and twin SU's - Was the envy of all of my mates in their 1000cc minis and 1.1 ford escorts . even if one of mine was "sh1te" brown :L
