Is that a Marina TC grille on the wall? Your garage looks awesome, by the way.

I had a Marina TC Coupe in green.

It was a Q car!

I swapped a Mk 4 spitfire for it so that my mum could get in and out of it!

Ah happy days!

There was one somewhere, If I find the box I'll have a look.

It had been reregistered on a P plate which made it stand out (slightly!)

It did go well though. I found that if you stuck the nose into the bend like you meant it and held your nerve it would corner quite well!

Dark Green with a Tabacco interior I think it had.

My mates used to take the mickey but I sort of liked it.

I remember reading an article about a V8 3.5 litre one! Mad!
