Ooh I think this is the mythical 1500cc diesel as fitted to Portuguese-assembled Itals (which were still badged Marina). 

It is the ultimate in masochist transport, packing all of 37bhp and probably making a right racket while doing so. 

Absolutely would

IIRC there was even special dispensation in the MOT emissions test for them because they were all pretty much unable to meet the emissions standard they were sold with. Fuel control with any carb is nowhere near good enough to not knacker a cat pretty quickly.

My Innocenti has a carb and a cat and it flies through the emissions every year.  Its CO reading this year was lower than the 107.

I've seen some flowery language on eBay ads over the years, but fuck me...

Remember when Mercedes made cars properly, and you actually wanted one, rather than strapping yourself into a plastic box on HP for 1000 years? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/305039227658?hash=item4705c13b0a:g:LuwAAOSwrMtkkUQR Yeah it's £13495, but LOOK AT IT. Choice of this or a Dacia Sandero? In Welshland.

Chevy Blazer with V6 and Spanish gearbag. I may be wrong but didn't there used to be one on here? @eddyramrod? Was it you Sir? £1495 Houghton Le Spring, which sounds a bit posh. But probably isn't.

That's good memory, it was ten years ago!  4.3V6 is the same engine I had; it was ridiculously thirsty and loaded with untraceable major faults.  The RHD conversion left nowhere for my feet.  I only had it a couple of months and traded it for the Tacuma that stayed over five years, until we went Motability.  I wouldn't have this model of Blazer again, as a gift.

But wait, what?  Learner gears?  How the fuck is that supposed to improve matters?  Can you hear that rhythmic thumping going on?  That's me running the fuck away.
