Re: how many Marinas left in Ireland?

The black tulip saloon above is somewhere round Finaghy area I think, only one I know of in Belfast. Also only original NI car still on the road that I know of. I'm out west on Donegal border but usually in Belfast 2-3 days a week. Your new coupe's looking good there, funky enough! Sent from my iPho...

Re: Last Ital: MMOC&IR FB post

Thought I recognised this one. I remember it being for sale a lot of years ago, around 1997-98 I'd say. From memory I think it was advertised as the last Morris ever or something like that, which at the time I just took to mean an Ital rather than the actual very last Ital off the production line! I...

Re: What did you do to your Marina today?

That's a bit of a shame[emoji20] What's the plan for the pickup now? Or the engine for that matter?

I certainly loved that car back in the day, but these days I think I might feel more at home in Hutch's car...

Re: SPOTTED-today in Bristol.

Love the van with the bits of rope hanging off the roof rack - surrounded by an E-type, a Porsche, and an anonymous looking red sports car with perhaps some kind of a prancing horse logo? - I know which one I'd rather be behind the wheel of!

Just got the car in under the new roof for the very first time and was about to sit down with a cold one to celebrate when the post man arrived. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160609/dd37a47d9598d6e5bce08eae938627c9.jpg Perfect timing!

Re: Morris Marina Mk1 DoneDeal

Looks like a nice one. G is Galway reg. but plate format is post 1987 I think so car probably imported here from UK - not many cars survived as well as this here as roads would have been poor around Galway in 1975 and mot test only came in in 2000 so cars tended to be neglected and deteriorate.

Re: What did you do to your Marina today?

Never done Fords myself, but that Consul Capri does look nice - could almost jump ship.. On second thoughts, those wire wheels just don't look quite right, so think I'll be sticking with my Marinas. Gets me thinking though - pillarless Coupe anyone?
