The INCREDIBLE MORRIS MARINA MARAUDER! - British Leyland Car Mystery Uncovered!
In this video we cover one of the most mysterious Morris Marina's ever made, the Leyland Marina Marauder, we explore whether it could be a lost prototype or an enthusiast build, it has been said this is one of the most obscure british car mysteries on the internet and in this video we try to find it plus a call to action.
The Morris Marina though isn't a bad car through Motorsport, sales success it proved itself against all odds to be a mainstay of British cars, we cover long forgotten stories from Cowley and analyse the anatomy of what some have called a failure. Morris' last car.
Just a note; not all was bad with British leyland and the British car industry isn’t dead it is very much alive. Regarding MG Rover and the many other eras I covered as much as I could in the small recap but longer videos will be produced covering these eras.
