My Marina 1800TC Coupe finished in mustard with a big black go faster stripe down the bonnet was a babe magnet!!   :y

They didn't care about the saggy leaf springs or drum brakes.  ;D

Oh yeah....I'd forgotten about the sexy ::) coupe version. It still came with the arthritic lump from the MGB. :D

All my mates were driving Fiesta's, Escort's, Metro's, Flat 127's, R5's and the like, so my Marina Coupe was the fastest and coolest of the bunch!  :y

I once met a bloke who swore blind that he had such an energetic session with a young lady in the back of his reliant robin, that when they had finished, the reliant was a quarter of a mile down the road from where he had parked it.  ;D ;D
He then proceeded to demonstrate how he could entangle himself through one of the pub seats and then extricate himself, like a professional contortionist.
He certainly got himself very tangled around the seat, but try as he might, he couldnt get himself out. Everyone ignored him and went home. No idea how he got on after that.  ::) ;D ;D

Nah I've always liked posh totty  and the windscreen strip with TIGGER and AMELIA/CHARLOTTE/OLIVIA and the like just wouldn't have looked right.  ::)   ;D

Still looks great. Still quite quick even by modern standards.

"Shall we take the Interceptor tonight, darling?"
