    Just found this.
    Not Marlin Related, but interesting never the less.
    MOC member since 05/97
    1984 Marlin Roadster SWB.
    1800TC, Unleaded ported head, stage 2 cam. Ford Type 9 gearbox, Dolomite Sprint rear axle fitted with MGF disc brakes.
    Three core radiator, Renault Clio vented front discs.
    The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.

    Loads of Marlin Reference can be found documents here or there.

      Brilliant, Motor Rail was much better than the M6 & M5 for getting to Cornwall. Especially befor the M5 Exeter bypass.

          Don’t give his alias away! That’s why I didn’t mention it.

              Love the idea that eating a “Full-English, greasy fry-up” is an “Ulcer-free” way of travelling!
