Someone has tried to make a Sherpa coupe look like an Aston Martin.  The engine has been replaced by an O series from a Princess so I imagine Commander Bond would have no trouble dispatching Xenia Onatopp‘s Ferrari.

I can’t imagine that adding a massive iron engine and moving the centre of gravity further up and forward would help the drivability 😳

There was a version of the Marina in Australia that had a six cylinder engine.  Not sure if it was any good, but standards of saloon car handling at the time weren’t very high 😀

6 cylinder in an MG B? That will be a MG C. They sound nice with the right exhaust .

Supposedly underpowered compered to rivals that where 3-4 litre engines & very nose heavy according to contemporary roadtests.

I too have some spare wheels for that. And now stupid ideas of a 175bhp battered Berlingo.

I never realised that these had such comically large grilles.

Very much a case of the pointy front bumper makes it look a million times better.
