Fast Marina Magazine

Built by British Leyland Competition Department, Abington, UK, ‘GC2’ was one of a pair of Morris Marinas built for the 1972 Heatway Rally, along with a pair of Mini Clubmans.

Originally entered for Andrew Cowan and Jim Scott (the eventual winner in a Clubman), this car was driven in the event by Jim Richards, with Jim Carney as co-driver. After winning a special stage early in the event, and running second overall behind Andrew Cowan, suspension problems and a failing gearbox saw Jim Richards forced to retire in midfield.

Is this the same one that was up for sale a few years back?

In 2010, it sold for NZ$8,000 (about 4,000 quid), could be worth a bit more now.

Yeah that's sounds right. I can remember speaking to you about the possibility of me importing it.
