That was in Coventry last year on eBay and sold out of auction for £1200.. I wonder why both these TC's are now back on.. Does it have something to do with the way they handle? People like the looks but not the ride? I am intrigued!

I imagine this one is back on because the bloke has seen the other one rocket to 1400 quid in a matter of days and thought to himself hang on now's my chance to make a buck again -

Just to point out, he bought it for about 1200, was up for sale in PC for 1490 odd and now on piston heads for 2000. Not that im bitter about not getting it first time or anything :twisted:

William.... Bitter.....? Nah!!!!!!

I don't know why he thinks there are only 3..... That was not information he got from the MMOC! I think I will send this email to him..:

Dear seller,

I am intrigued as to your comment that only 3 Marina TC's exist. I have 4 on my driveway and one was brought for £75 two years ago and brought back to road worthy specification within two months.. I know of at least 40 Marina TC's in the UK. What is your main reason for selling this example?

Regards,

Potential Bidder.

It looks nice in that colour and it looks complete to which is a bonus.

from memory it needs some work on the front wings and the front seats are not original - dont think they are marina even, additionaly the door top vinyl trims have been changed or vinyl coated in navy as apposed to geranium.

Maybe the door tops have been replaced or painted as they were sun damaged!
But the radio hole in dash is massive so has been cut out a lot, and gods knows what they did to the speaker grill. But it does have a CB and tripple gauge pod :shock:
