Had a quick look as dad owned a series of Austin’s that never worked, once thru a breeze block thru window of misbehaving mini.
Only leyland cars I’d have would be rovers , or jag if you insist.
I love cars from almost any era, but I might find that a bit of a challenge, I’m sad to say.
You haven’t owned an Allegro so you don’t know what real shit is.The only remotely connected car to this 'scene' I've ever owned was a Rover 220 Turbo Coupe.... it was shit and I got rid after 6 months!
Cars I have had from the stable: Mini 1000 - huge fun, Marina 1.3 - dull but reliable, Montego 2.0 EFI - OK for pulling the caravan, Rover 414 - excellent.
My dad had a Morris marina 1.3 for four years
Early naim...Looking at those cars, it seems amazing that a country that up to the 60s made beautiful things like Jaguars, "real" Rovers, Triumphs, MGs, Aston Martins, Bentleys, etc., could sink so low by the '80s. Many look like they came from East Germany or Czecoslovakia in the Soviet era, BUT with leather and wood inside. Strangely cuddly, in a way. In the mid-sixties my father had a 3-litre Wolseley which had a radio that took a few minutes to "warm up."
