Bloody hell, I'd love that Morris wedge. As Tim says, it's proper rare that one. In fact I'm sure I read somewhere last year there's only one or two left known to exist.

That is great. My dad had a 6 cylinder Princess in metallic green with a tan interior - I remember it vividly. It was, he said, a really good drive. And the engine was a dream. shame they have largely disappeared - stylish retro chic now!

I'd love one. Shame I haven't got either the time, money or space/garage to get one, otherwise this Morris would be very interesting to me. Wonder how bad the rot is!

Dont tell everyone! FFS!
IF the mass populus start realising how rare these Morris wedge cars are, then the bidding will go beyond my range.

So lets keep it shtum kids!

Oh, hang on......... aaahhhhhhh.... I get it now...

It was fairly obvious dude! Rover in the name, and "loving my xantia"...
There's only like 3 people on earth that like Xantia's, one of them is CitroJim, another is dead, and you are the third!
Elementary my dear Watson... Case closed. Lunch beckons!!!!
Pip pip!

Marty, step away from the keyboard!

It's been painted with the same stuff that gets slapped on women wishing to be exfoliated in health spa's!!!

I rather like that

Now that is not ivory or cream - it is beige.

It's also a bloody metro, which means it was unbelievably crap when new and even worse now.

They are utter utter rubbish. Even on a good day.
