Want, in a sort of morbid-curiosity kind of way. €2900 https://www.custojusto.pt/aveiro/veiculos/carros-usados/sedan/morris-oxford-37993665 Just 40 horsepower. Looking round I think there are possibly more Farinas left on the Iberian Peninsula than in the UK these days. To get round problems with the Franco dictatorship and import/currency restrictions from 1963 -1975 BMC established a joint venture in Spain to produce BMC/BLMC cars under licence - 'AUTHI' - 'Automoviles de Turismo Hispano-Ingleses' (Spanish-English Tourism Automobiles). The plant was in Pamplona - and ended up with VW eventually after BL pulled the plug. VW produce a lot of cars there now - 288.088 vehicles in 2022 (154.151 T-Cross, 36.946 Polo and 96.991 Taigo). I'm not sure how much these Farinas/ AUTHI's were CKD and how much local content. The diesel was a good idea - but woefully underdeveloped. It was the kind of thing Mercedes made a big success with the Ponton and successors for the taxi trade and 3rd world markets.

Quite possibly, especially with A.C's form for bringing Irish stuff over here, but quite an oddity. Anyway, it's gone already, so someone must have been keen for it to sell within a few hours.

In any case, that's extremely cheap for anything with a 69 reg. When my son bought his Tipo hatchback in 2020 as a hugely discounted unsold pre-registered 2017 model with delivery miles only, we had seen a few adverts from UK dealers trying to dispose of selling brand new RHD white Tipo saloons which we had not realised were a thing. The previous 'Tipo' saloon was called a Tempra. Clearly, Fiat could not be bothered to have Tempra badges manufactured this time. He part exchanged his Tipo a few months ago after a totally reliable, very economical (diesel), comfortable but somewhat boring 3 years of ownership.
