I’m sure I remember them with wheel covers.

My boss had the same wheel trims on his company car. A red mk3 cavalier SRi. I guess it was early enough (1989) to have the 130 SEH 8V engine.

Quite a few early Mk3  SRis had that (brilliant) engine and wheel trims. IIRC, later on they were C20XE or Ecotec.

I was always disappointed by that too.

That's super-nice! A pretty good price too I reckon.

More basic than mine, but I'd suggest in better condition and just a third of the mileage. Just a 4-speed 'box, but the 2-litre 'six' revs nicely - I used to drive my previous-gen Laurel with the same engine/gearbox combo faster than I do my current 2.4 and 5-speed.

Hmm why does it have a full MK4 Ghia interior in it?

Does appear to be a late Mk5 was probably a GL which would make it rarer but no more valuable for " investment" purposes.

1977 Morris Marina 1.3 Deluxe Police Livery - Picture 1 of 24

1977 Morris Marina 1.3 Deluxe Police Livery | eBay

'there are paint imperfections here and there'

Rough as a bear's freshly sandpapered arse, yet still quite appalling appealing 

 

I am not an expert on British police cars, but to me this livery seems a bit anachronistic for the 1970s? All period photos show police cars with orange stripes:
