Hiya Cliff

Yep, that was my Marina-the only one at the show-though according to one seller he had had a few marina inquires for bits so looks like there was a few of us there.

Glad you like the car-taking a while to make it look that good-though more planned Oh, and its Blaze orange-Vermillion was for the younger ones I believe!

ha ha...apols for the colour misidentification........i had my car there...the legendary "is it/isnt it faux TC" from ebay last month! lol......i had it parked just across from the turnstiles in the public carpark

i hung round by yer motor for a while to see if i could have a word but the cold got the better of me! lol

my older bruv was laughin at me cos i was all over your motor (got down on me knee's n peered under) when there was a supercharged TVR burblin away not far from it!

TC-CLIFF you got it bad mate - we all understand the Marina versus TVR problem here. Well whatever your model is enjoy it, have fun, break the mold, don't be led by the hoard.

On the subject of your car, it's fine it's a Marina. I think that what many people on here were on about was that the guy that was selling it may not have been totally straight about the model description. As different models go for different money, we were warning one another as much as anything. Of course the car may have been like that for years and he could also have been none the wiser and just repeated what he had been told when he bought it.

thanks.......i have owned 5 previous marina's......my 1st car was a limeflower green 72 sdl 1.8 coupe (JHT355L), then came a metallic gold 76 1.8 special saloon, then a 73 1300 deluxe saloon in teal blue, then a 77 GT 1.8 coupe (rotten as a pear, £100 but went like stink), then a 1.3 pick-up which i taught my missus to drive in.........ex bristol airport vehicle in bright yellow with flashin beacons!!! lol
