Sexy Rears

[chaseracer]

NO! Allegro, Riva, Mk5 Cortina, Princess Wedge, Mk3 Escort, Pinto, Ami, Rootes Arrow, the Talbot living-van thing, A SODDING MARINA FOR FUCK'S SAKE... cannot understand any of these!

And you are as entitled to your opinion as any of us.

 

However, are you familiar with the phrase "beauty is in the eye of the beholder"? Or, as Shakespeare expressed it in Love's Labours Lost in 1588, about the same time as the Marina's front suspension design was first used:

 

Good Lord Boyet, my beauty, though but mean,

Needs not the painted flourish of your praise:

Beauty is bought by judgement of the eye,

Not utter'd by base sale of chapmen's tongues.

 

Also, Benjamin Franklin wrote in Poor Richard's Almanack:

 

Beauty, like supreme dominion

Is but supported by opinion

 

and David Hume's 1742 Essays, Moral and Political include:

 

Beauty in things exists merely in the mind which contemplates them.

 

It's an education, this place...

Hmm... I know we're supposed to rejoice in the shiteness of our favourite cars, but come on, there are limits! I shall never sacrifice my sanity to a soft spot for Marinas and the like...

Are they Nissan 100NX rear lights?

I thought "Impreza" at first, but I think you've got it there, Leonardo del'Odio...

[Angrydicky]

Just for Eccentric Richard.

 

 

I think you might be on the wrong forum dude...

[Richard]

Slightly OT, but was there any difference at all between the Princess and Princess 2?

Princess 2 got the new 'o series' engine. 1.7 etc.

[Richard]

Ah yes, forgot about that.

WHAT ARE THOSE?!

[myglaren]

And what is this? I feel I should know but can't quite get a handle on it.

 

Xedos perhaps?

Hmm, I don't think it is. There's something about the frameless doors that says late-90s 323 to me, but I'm not sure. It's Xedos-y in style, but something just ain't quite right about it...

[Gompo]

Could be an Astina?

[Guest]

That's a Lantis.

[fiatdaft]
