1972 Morris Marina 1.3 Coupé - DAJ 224L

The Morris Marina was manufactured from 1971 through until 1980 and sold in some markets as the Austin Marina, the Leyland Marina and the Morris 1700.

The much-maligned Marina has been described in many a review as one of the worst cars of all time, although it was hugely popular car in Britain throughout its production life. Rust-proofing on British cars from that period was typically poor, which explains why these cars are a very rare sight on our roads today.

So, it was nice to come across this one although the choice of exhaust fitted seemed a little dubious.
