those old "brown "........."burnt orange" type colours were used for a reason.......................................to disguise the rust that usually started to appear just as the warranty ran out............... :lol:

Did any of them reach warranty running out before terminal failure? I know my dads Marina TC Coupe didn't.

Nice colour, he chopped it in for a Maxi in the same colour. Funnily enough that ran fine for years. Must've been built one morning the Communists working for BL were something close to happy.

There couldn't have been too many of those. :shock:
