"I`m totally amazed ......

[Uncle Frank]

Hi guys and girls, just recieved the following E-mail and thought you might like to comment or perhaps give this pillock a hard time!

From. Terry

Hi just came across the website by chance, i`m totally amazed that there is a site devoted to this totally utterly crap car!!
For my sins, i had one as a company car in the early 80`s. I used to leave it unlocked in car parks in Brighton (then the thief centre outside of London) hoping that it would be stolen. No such luck, the crooks knew better.
It has to be the worst car ever made in Britain and certainly justifies the demise of our car manufacturing industry.
Regards
Terry

PS. Did they ever sort out the judder in reverse? After almost five years in production, i was told by the local dealer after taking delivery of a new one "they all do that Sir!!"
...........................................................................................................
To say the least i was not impressed with this rather unnescessary E-mail and i thought you chaps might like to bombard the idiot with your own thoughts!!, needless to say i have already replied as follows.....

Hi Terry,
For my sins i have just had to read your utterly crap E-mail!, fortunately for every one ex- owner such as yourself there are several owners who actually had a good experience with the Marina, and still express a fondness for them!, it may surprise you to learn that the club is over 500 strong and has been around for over 20 years. I could tell you a similar tale to your own about a Ford Capri i once owned, but i do not feel the need to contact the Capri club to tell them what a crap car they are and upset a lot of enthusiasts who genuinely like the car!! In future please keep your opinions to yourself, i hope you are very proud to be driving around in your Eurobox saloon or perhaps you prefer the Jap stuff, some of us still like our old BL rubbish and are proud of it!

yours F.Phillips President MMOC.

For my sins i have just had to read your utterly crap E-mail!,

[martinmarina]

:twisted: Heh I just told him the Paedo police are onto Him :twisted: :twisted:

Have since apologised for my childish remarks to Him , I woz angry at the time of reading , been a little more constuctive and conversing with Him giving Him my point of view , not descending into stupid comments.

Well said uncle Framk, he was a right tosser, I have no idea what jjjjjjjjjuddering he is on about :roll: ah there we go lol

[stuthegasman]

what a plonker maybe his medication ran out today or perhaps he escaped from the local loony bin and went straight into his local dixons to play on the computers in the hope of finding some child porn he must have come across this site by accident..........
oh and I just couldn't resist sending him an email I've got to let out my aggression somewhere seeing as though i'm a good boy on here these days lol

[~Sam~]

One could argue that replying to this gentleman with such immature content lowers you to his level.

I did not realise his email was put on or I would have removed it sooner. Call me a spoil sport and whatever else if you like, however making comments related to paedophilia and emailing him means he will have written evidence that some marina owners have nothing better to do than make 13 year old esq comments.

I shall keep an eye out for your email address on other forums.

Have just emailed this to that twat
Dear Terry , I have just read with some amazement your totally biggoted and short sighted opinion on the morris marina !! It is because of comments like yours and other ignorant people that we lost our motor industry to the japanese and european competitors !! For your information and that you dont make a similar ignorant comment in the future , the marina holds itself well considering it was designed in the late 60's and was designed by the same man who designed the ford cortina mk2 and mini clubman , each with their own faults and in fact it took Ford to point out to BL (British Leyland) that they were actually selling the mini for less than it cost to make , the marina actually sold over a million units and made a profit !!
So before you make another stupid comment please be aware of these facts and try not to make an imbecile of yourself !!

Kind regards J Wollweber MMOC

P.S I also own a 06 plate Vauxhall Zafira which has just developed clutch judder !! Perhaps i should email a vauxhall club and tell them what a pile of shite vauxhall zafira's are , but then they're not vauxhalls anymore are they ??

8) maybe he read the previous topic "how bad was the marina" and thought he would throw in his tuppence worth.
after all some werent too kind to the marina with their comments and i hold my hand up as well with my ital comments.
we would be better NOT to slag off our cars in future as we are leaving ourselves wide open for this type of sarcastic comment. we really should be more supportive to all our makes and models in future.
