A friend of my youngest has a coupe in the fetching diarrhoea colour in his garage, he just uses it a summer car. Wonder if he knows how much it may be worth?

Best thing you can do is choose a car you like, and buy the nicest one you can find.

What if you'd overdosed on Dorset Turnips and liked a Morris Marina, like Sir Tig.....

 

I was 19 and it cost me fifty quid with 6 months MOT & tax. 

It was a great car though and I used do a lovely drift in it around a hairpin bend deep in the lanes near here! 

....and don't forget it was the desirable 1.8TC coupe version....so the ladies went weak at the knees. Wet with anticipation.

 

It had a black 'go faster' stripe down the bonnet as well! 

Used Marina seem to be up for sale within the £3000-£9000 range.

Why would anyone be tempted to pay this for a seventies car, with fifties engineering tech, that corners like a a dog on polished lino.

One of the reasons I won't buy another Marina Coupe 1800TC is that I'd be very tempted to drift it round the afore mentioned hairpin bend in the lanes in the dead of night.   

I'm probably not as talented as I was when I was 19 and it would go horribly wrong!       

Went to Tesco's and when I got to the checkout realised I had forgotten to bring a bag, but as I didn't have much I decided I was too tight to pay 40p for a carrier bag.

Got to the car with an armful of groceries, put them on the roof and as I leaned into the back of the car to fish out a bag.......

Whoomph!      WTF was that?? 

I looked up to see a bloody seagull fly off with my garlic bread! 

By the time I got over to them they had ripped open the packaging and eaten about half of it.  About 40p's worth....

Driving out of the village tonight in the C1, avoiding the worst of the potholes, most of which have traffic cones sat in them to help with this.
Suddenly realised that the cone had gone missing from the last one, just too late and hit it so hard it burst the n/s/f tyre, which was brand new a month ago.
The state of the roads are a national disgrace, but the powers that be couldnt give a toss. 
Will need to check in the morning if anything else is bent / broken.   

Although there’s no guarantee of a successful claim, our council has been inundated with damage claims for pot hole damage. Anything ranging from a tyre to suspension damage. Such is the scale of the number of claims, the council have reported that it may take over four months before your claim gets dealt with. I’ve had to replace nearly new tyres due to pot hole damage, so has my daughter and son. I’d like to think that the more people that claim, the more chance that they may do something about it. 

Ah, but you live in Oxfordshire. How dare you use a car, car's are evil and must be banned at all costs, hence those eedjits have never maintained roads in decades!

You're a wrong's Sir Tig
