Both of those are TOTES LUSH.

I can totally see why you'd want that Minx, what a treat. Sometimes I like how that Marina looks and sometimes I don't, I suspect it's one of those cars that you have to see in person to really make up your mind. I am, however, really happy that said Marina exists.

I know where there is a gazelle estate like that which will probably be for sale before very long.....

Hmm, I'm not so keen on the Singer front end. Is it roadworthy?

Would be pretty easy to Hillmanise a Singer one though?

It's still in daily use. How much longer it remains like that is more dependant on the health of the owner than the health of the car.

Yeah, I realised that after looking at some more photos. I wouldn't want to do it to a minter but then 'm unlikely to get a minter (if we do). Of course Hillmanising would be even easier considering I already own a Series 3 Minx grille....

Well, Ozzy, I suppose let me know, ta!
