Very nice! I remember seeing the picture of that and being rather sad when I did a DVLA check :(

I would love a Jubilee....

I think that is 11 plus 2 missing in action! I still have not seen the one TAXED one (WJT 320M) in Bournmouth and there is still NFW 932M which is probably long gone.

Oh and I think 2 in bits (One of which was in the club mag VTK 199M) Other is known of but in a field rotting bad I think.

Hi Josh,
There was the one in bits for sale in the club mag!! I guess it will still be available as I have not heard anyone purchasing it and maybe RDG 119M will be up for sale!

I have emailed the person that found it to see what the situation is.
I also did not include Joe warrens replica Jubilee!
I keep saying that must be all that are left but you never know :wink:

Paul.

I didnt see the one in the club mag and as it's in bits it would be best left that way :lol: I think I will have to wait until my saloon is back on the road before even thinking about purchasing another Marina...
I am currently considering whether it will be either a Jubilee, MK2 HL, TC saloon, pickup, MK2 LE or a MK1 1.3 Coupe.....

If anyone has a rough idea of the location in Bournemouth of WJT320M, I'm quite happy to do some 'laps' in the area to try and locate it. I'm certain that I've seen the car in daily use - it sticks in the mind as it was sporting a set of modern 'flush-fit' aftermarket wheeltrims - but, being still new to all things Marina, I didn't appreciate its rarity.

Sorry! only know it as being in Bournemouth :roll:
The only other one I have seen fitted with nasty flush wheel trims was in the Wiltshire Motor Museum (Atwell Wilson Car Museum).

But that one was on plate TGC 32M and if you google it on the picture part it comes up.
