 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |

The one in Brum on the 'Bay and stated that it was for sale else where, I enquired how much and the answer was £10 yes really £10 and the second is a members of the Triumph Acclaim Owners Club who has no space tostore it and was thinking about scrapping it so I said I would have it.
Plan to keep both on the road so thats 2 saved!!!
Storage begging pm sent to Twigsy!!! ;D ;D

Just a thought, as they're the same colour, couldn't you convince swmbo that it's just one car?  |

They look the curse word nutz though, like some sort of datsun. Would really like to see one with mad camberZ and phat rimZ and something TWINK like under the bonnet. There is one in Potters Bar which has been sitting for a while:  |

I have a 1983 BL brochure somewhere it was ace, it had loads of marques in! I treated it like Bible hand book! |

Both CDs too unless I'm mistaken?
I've got some spare lights and odds and ends from an Acclaim that got raced years ago, if ever you're down this way let me know.
