Spotted around Portsmouth

Post by JoshWard » Sun Sep 11, 2011 10:52 am

Hi all,
A mate of mine has spotted this Marina TC saloon and I just thought I'd post it up here to see if anyone knew of it's owner etc? He seems to remember it was a J plater

From a distance it looks like 'The grey lady' which I thought lives around that area..

Think you could well be right there, certainly the right area and colour, and certainly has badges on the grille.

That looks like 'the Grey Lady' to me as well Josh. A mk1 1.3 SDL auto, with a mk2 grille painted black through the centre and chrome wheel rings. She is an 'M' reg.
A real beauty, with all leather interior. A lot of long standing members will know of her. Dave B.

I think there was a MK1 1300 Coupe on ebay some time ago this colour.A forum member purchased it if I remember correctly but nothing has been posted about it recently.
