[Andy B]

I didn't even know there was such a thing ..... 

[Nick W]

I didn't even know there was such a thing ..... 

I know a bloke who has spent most of this year welding up the one he's used for work for as long as I can remember.


I wonder how many are left?

[Sir Tigger KC]

Wow look at that!   

Identical to my Dad's Marina pickup that I passed my driving test in. 

[Sir Tigger KC]

I used to tell the girls that I had a 'little two seater' that I could take them home in, but their enthusiasm seemed to wane a little when they clapped eyes on my Dad's scruffy pick up for some reason.... 

 

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

I would have thought that would be exactly what a Darzet girl would imagine to be a little two seater. 

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

I would have thought that would be exactly what a Darzet girl would imagine to be a little two seater. 

I see it is appropriately finished in BRG to show of it's racing heritage and fine handling.

[Keith ABS]

 There was supposed to be an orange 1.3 coupe at the same sale

[BazaJT]

A "Dukes of Darzett" car?

[Sir Tigger KC]

I would have thought that would be exactly what a Darzet girl would imagine to be a little two seater. 

I see it is appropriately finished in BRG to show of it's racing heritage and fine handling.

Oh yes there was plenty of 'fine handling'!

They were dire enough handling as a car. God knows what it was like with the back end full of rubble. I bet you'd lose your load* on every roundabout.


* - No, not that kind of load.

I imagine the inept handling of the Marina could result in terminal bowel excavation, thus lightening the load in a different way.

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Fecal impaction is easily overcome once the Marina runs out of grip.

[Sir Tigger KC]

When I was 19 I had nerves of steel, so whipping a Marina around the lanes of East Devon and West Dorset at ridiculous speeds was just normal, so there were no fecal accidents. 

30 odd years later it seems slightly unhinged though....

We're just jealous because only the lucky few get to own an iconic car like a Marina.

Very true M'lud! 

I was doubly lucky in that I did my driving lessons, took my test and then got to borrow my Dad's Marina pickup, before going on to buying my very own Marina Coupe! 

What a lucky lucky bastard I was!

Very luck indeed! After that introduction to motoring, every car since must seem like your driving a Rolls Royce.

.. just with less tottie, naturally.

Not sure 'Darzett' girls count as tottie......Sir Tig would have needed to drug them first before getting them into the Marina.

I'm not sure Rohypnol had been invented back then.... 

If it was around, I didn't know about it, and had no need for it, as they were queuing up for a ride in the Marina Coupe 1800TC!
