| Moris Marina an absolute piece of rubbish. The only reason I had it was it was all I could afford at the time. |

| I've never owned a Chevrolet that was worth a damned--most were given to me, though, but even the very easy to maintain '57 P/U I bought 5th hand, needed ALOT of near-constant maintenance. |

one of my neighbours used to have one of them and he loved it (it was a six cylinder coupe) and he only got rid of it a few years ago because his wife wanted him to. i was talking to him a few months ago and when i mentioned something about an old car i had seen he commented about how good he thought leyland's cars were.... |

Think he must have come from a paralell universe, pretty much everyone I know would disagree with him as Leyland stuff universally rubbish. |

maybe - or perhaps the australian built cars were better put together - my mother used to have an austin kimberley, which was one of her favourite cars, my grandfather had a wolseley 24/80 for over 20 years, and my first car was a mini (now you know where my username came from!) and when i was in my first job i worked with someone who had an austin tasman and liked it, although he did say something along the lines of "you have to be a bit odd to drive something like that" but then he did have a rather warped sense of humour..... |

worst - take your pick from Datsun 140J, 1976, '58 Standard 8, '59 Morris Oxford.
Best - '63 Cortina GT - & surprised to see people slagging off mk 1 cortinas - clearly they were never maintained |
