Titish Brelecom made me drive around in a crapped out 6 year old Ital van.  It was shit.  A proper heap.  It got lighter with every month, and bump in the road.

4,550 miles is still enough misery for a car to hand out.

The Ital was the posh version of the Marina with added Italian flair and elan. :)

No comment from Tigger.....perhaps he has rushed out to buy this magnificent example of Britain at her best. >:D

Rae's nailed it with this beauty!  8)  This is exactly like my Marina, same colour and everything, but minus the black stripe down the centre of the bonnet.   :y

Although I can't remember if mine had the vinyl roof or not.  :-\

You can keep your crappy Ital, that's Kevin Wood's former love!  ;D

I suspect the Ital was more for necessity rather than lust in the case of KW. :)

Well, it was free, so I can't grumble.

Being an estate there was plenty of space in the back for lust, but without the legendary pulling abilities of the Marina, this went untested. ;D

I believe Tigger owned a 1.8TC in desirable coupe form. Little wonder the local Darzett girls were wet with carnal desire. >:D
