It's weird that they've not used the "J word" in the title, they've even listed it as a 14B instead of a 148

It amazes me how these things get people foaming at the mouth, We really should be more discerning on here. Its a bit like the members of the vintage bentley forum getting worked up over a morris marina.. :yawn:

Lol.... 'Morris Marina '... My ol' man used to have a Marina van .. If anything went wrong with it he'd fix it himself.... Those were the days..none of this plug into a computer lark... But I guess it's all rose tinted glasses... I remember getting my Cobra modified by Mr Nugent and couldn't wait to pick it up... These days however it's no great shakes... It does amaze me how much attention they do get... and W&S selling as spares or repair hardly gives you much confidence either....;-)

To think I used to drool over a purple Marina coupe with black vinyl roof when I were a lad!
Thank goodness that particular car crush didn't last :)

One of my mates had the 1.8 twin-cam Marina and another had the 1300GT. They were crap round corners ;)

My Grandad had a 1.8 Super in Coupe form back in 1984-5. The very first time we went out he nearly killed us in it on a bend. He wrote it off shortly after when someone pulled out in front of him at a roundabout.

There is no such thing as a Fidelity 1000 which is too good to scrap.

Another thread changed to cars :) The radio will no doubt now go for stupid money even though its not working and possibly butchered inside.

Ahh, Marina's...a much maligned classic. My dad had a Marina van (MNW516L) for picking up bits for his motorbike shop. Mum had a bright green 1.3 4 door and next door had a white 4 door. All gone now, as are 95% of Marina's :-(

Seller should have no problem showing an inside pic i would think . Bit like storage wars. its a box and there might be nothing in it . But but but there might be something . Or nothing ... or something .

If that makes a bidding frenzy because it has half the letters of jentec wrote on it then i am gonna write it on all my scrapers .

I would want to see the insides or its just worth a tenner for knobs
