VANGUARDS - MORRIS MARINA 1300 LIMEFLOWER

The Marina was hyped as BL’s rival to the Ford Cortina. There were two engine sizes available, along with a 4-door saloon and a 2-door fastback coupe. An estate version was later added to the range. The Marina was produced between 1971-1978 with a total production run in excess of 950,000 vehicles. Vanguards' Marina is really a good reproduction of this unloved saloon. The etched grille and detailed interior are superb rendered for the money.  Shop here
