      Looks to be a Marina-based kit albeit with a non-Marina engine (exhaust on driver's side and engine mounts are non-standard)...so someone didn't keep DVLA updated..!
      The Rostyle wheels (14"), chopped bonnet-side and the fact that the spare wheel carrier is missing suggest to me it may have been used for trialling...but just a guess.
      Marlin Roadster, LWB...1860 B Series + Ford Type 9
      Renault Espace 54mm front calipers, vented discs, cycle wings and adjustable tie-bars.

        Good guess that man - it was for sale recently, and it had a Pinto and gearbox !

          Where/how did you get these details..?
          When I do a DVLA tax check using reg number & either Marlin or Morris as the make it comes back as "unable to find"...?

            That's because its registered as a Marlin Roadster.

            If you use a site like "Mycarcheck" first that will give you the actual title the car is reg as.

            Then it will come up on DVLA site
            Ben Caswell probably not the last word on anything here!!

                  My car is registered as Marlin Roadster also. Drove me crazy trying to get into DVLA with reg and Marlin only.
