Hi welocme to the auction of our fantastic 1977 Morris Marina Deluxe.

Its a Marina with a twist. its fitted with a 2. 0 Ital automatic engine converted to manual with a 4 speed 1. 3 gearbox. Its a Marina with a twist!

It looks totally standard and is great condition and when you jump in and drive it really does accelarate right through the gears and surprises many people at just how quick this little steet sleeper is. The other advantage is that this is a genuine well looked after Marina whose previous owner owned it for several years and spent thousands on it with new brakes. tyres. servicing and paintwork. I have a big file full of history and even a note from the second owner explaining all about the first owner who kept it until 2000 and was 90!

The Marina is still registered as a 1275 and has been professionally converted at great expense with its current 2. 0 litre engine. The paintwork has been completed this year and she is taxed and tested ready for some summer fun. These cars are starting to appreciate in value and this one will certainly do that. everyone stops to talk about it.

On the road she drives well with a good gearbox and brakes and everything works well and feels good. The shell is solid for her age and the paintwork is very good with only a few imperfections here and there. it is now 36 years old. The interior is original with a couple splits on the front seats but as you can see from the pics the rest is good. The rear boot lock has been removed and there is an internal boot release inside the car to open it up. the are bonnett pins on the front which is probably a good idea!

Overall a fantastic car ready to go. shes not a show winner but would certainly get you to the show in style with lots of pace!

Why am i selling her? Im a Classic Mini specialist based in Wordsley in the West Midlands www. paulhiggcars. com and i dont have any space to keep the panther!

The price its offered at is a fraction of what it has been spent it over the last few years and viewings are very welcome so you can make up your own mind. I will store this little beast if its doesnt sell as i just love to drive something this rare that goes that well.
