Hi guys,
I hope you can help!

I need to replace the alternator on my mk1 1.3 Marina.
I've looked on eBay and I'm now totally confused.
Can anyone tell me which one I need to buy that will just bolt on!

Thank you.

I now have music!!
Thanks Josh!

Highly recommended.

Ok, thanks! Would be nice to have them on mine!!

Were reclining seats an option? I've had two Marina's and neither of mine had them.

Thanks for that.
On your carpet, are the edges trimmed, or finished, or just cut?
I see on Morris's carpet the edges around the gear lever look to be bound with vinyl.

I'm just trying to draw a comparison, that's all.

Thanks guys, they look good. Are the seatbelt stalks held in with nuts and bolts? Do I need to be in two places at once to undo them? What I mean by that is do I need to be underneath and inside the car at the same time to remove, or do they bolt into threaded holes or welded nuts? Lock, on your car...

Thanks Josh, I can't wait!

Good to hear, thank you!

Out of interest, what format of MP3 player will it work with and how would you go about turning it on to play the MP3s through the radio?

Thank you very much! I look forward to seeing the pictures.

I have always used Coverdale carpets for all my classic cars including my mk1 marina and they fit well, last well and are of good quality. If you ring them they will send you some colour samples. Thanks, I just checked out their website. Do you have a picture you can share? They have three tiers of...

Cheers Josh, I will get it in the post to you.
Is cheque ok? Failing that I will have to ask if my partner can pay with her PayPal account.

Hi Chris,
It's harvest gold, 1972..
It has yellow vinyl seats and a brown dashboard.

I have already had a reply.
They think they may have a suitable colour, but only in wool.
Apparently more expensive...
I need to send an email to get a colour chart.
We will have to see what the final cost will be before I decide whether or not to compromise on colour...

Thank you.
I will see what he comes back with regards colour.

Thank you for that, the carpet really let's it down, I suppose after 45 years, what do you expect!! I have messaged him asking if he will do yellow/gold. He mentions that he binds the edges in leather type material in a colour of your choice.. I reckon brown to match the dashboard would look cool. I...
