Fast Marina Magazine

I was watching the history of the Ford Escort the other day and in one of the rallies there was a marina coupe. Was that a works team or an individual entry.

That was probably the works team car Larry, they were running two at the time both white Coupe`s in the 1300 class.

It was yellow Frank,

The yellow car was AOH XXX K, this was a Special Tuning entered (works) car and sponsored by Dunlop. They used it to test Dunlop run flat tyres on rallies. Brian Culcheth drove it on several internationals. It was written off around 1975.

Thanks Chris. I watched it again just to make sure.Was it written off in a Rally.

Yes, I believe that it was written off in a Rally.
