	Morris Marina - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Marina was a model of car manufactured by the Morris division of British Leyland throughout the 1970s, a period of great turbulence and difficulty for the British car industry.
		In Australia, it was known as the Leyland Marina, in New Zealand as the Morris 1700 (for 1979–81, in facelifted form), and in South Africa as the Austin Marina.
		In Denmark, the Morris Marina name was used for a badge-engineered version of the (Morris 1100) in the early- to mid-(1960s).

	Morris Motor Company - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		The facelifted Marina, the Morris Ital was the last Morris-badged passenger car until its demise in 1984.

		Marina burst from the side of her crate just in time to see a small fl figure, wearing a ski mask, race - with incredible speed - to the center of the warehouse and throw a rifle, with a telescopic sight and a large silencer, onto the floor beside the bodies.
		Marina raised her gun, attempting to fire at the fleeing figure, but it was already out of sight around the corner in the hallway leading to the front door.
		Marina stared at the four corpses heaped in the center of the warehouse, and her eyes moistened with tears.

		Marina Morris said, "I didn`t really have a thought, I was running on raw nerves...I still am..." But nerves have calmed a bit, with some help from the Red Cross, the family now has a home.
		Morris said, "If it wasn`t for red cross I don`t know what I would have done." Marina says her two young daughters are taking the whole situation in stride, helping in everyway they can.
		Tim Morris said, "I thank god for her strength, she`s done the work of 2 people..." But the only problem with the house is that it doesn`t have a ramp.

	Safety Fast Mar 99 - The MGB & Morris Marina Engine Story
		The Marina cylinderhead '12H4735' differed from the MGB’s 'pre-1970 '12H1326', and the 1970 to 1975 ‘12H2708’, in its oil feed to the rockers.
		Because of the huge cast iron Triumph gearbox the Marina has, there are two strong lugs welded to the base of the Marina's sump, that bolt to the bottom of its improved Triumph Herald gearbox.
		The carburettors on the Marina 1800TC are identical to the MGB, as are the manifolds.

	Marina development story (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		As envisaged at the beginning of the accelerated development programme, the Morris Marina would provide BLMC a perfect competitor in the fleet market and if you were an optimist in the company at the time, the feeling was that the Marina offered nearly everything the Cortina did, but in a more compact package.
		Because sales of the Morris Marina had never lived up to the heady expectations of it made during its development, the decision was made that the new car should follow the Cortina upmarket into the 2-litre class.
		As it was, sales of the Marina continued to hold up well during the Seventies, generally holding third or fourth in the UK sales charts, but it did not disguise the fact that marketing-led development was no substitute for genuine product development and as time went on, the Marina's shortcomings were becoming increasingly evident.

		It was considerably cheaper for BMC to continue to produce the Morris Minor than to develop a replacement car.
		Even though it was occupying the same market as the Morris 1100 for most of the sixties, the Minor reigned supreme.
		There were more Marinas made, they were better rust proofed, they are newer.

		The Ital, like the Marina it was 'derived' from was never meant to be a groundbreaking car, a sexy car, or a driver's car.
		A boxy design-by-committee shape, and suspension taken from the Morris Minor, which was designed in the forties.
		But another Morris never followed, and that another historic marque was allowed to die was a tragedy.

	Morris 1100 & 1300 1962-1971 - Phil Seed's Virtual Car museum
		The Morris 1100 (and its sister car, the Austin 1100) were very popular in their day.
		The Morris 1100, like its smaller sister, the Mini, was designed with a tranverse engine and front wheel drive, which gave the car lots of space for the passengers and their luggage, and of course great roadholding.
		The Austin 1100 models, introduced in September 1963, differed from the Morris version only in that the typical Austin grille (eight ‘wavy’ bars) and a different facia panel layout were adopted.

		A small facelift in 1975 gave the Marina new radiator grilles and dashboard, and the overhead camshaft O-Series engine (from the Leyland Princess) appeared in 1.7 litre form in 1978 to replace the larger B series 1.8 models.
		The Morris Marina, sold there as the Leyland Marina (in saloon and coupe forms only) instead used the OHC E-Series motors, in 1500 cc and 1750 cc.
		Additionally, as an ill-advised competitor to the Holden Torana and Ford Cortina 6 models, the Marina was also offered with a 121 hp (90 kW) 2600 cc engine.

		As generations of Morris men worked the waters of Canoe Neck Creek, supporting their families and supplying the steamboat ferries on their way to Washington D.C., the store grew into Ebb Tide Restaurant.
		In 1997, Frank Morris' niece sold the property to the Soussanins who have been carrying on the Morris tradition of home style hospitality ever since.
		There's also plenty of good food at Frank Morris Point, beginning with a crab dip Florentine with lots of crab meat, including big pieces of back fin, and spinach in a tasty cream sauce, served with white tortilla chips.

	Morris Marina 1.3/1.8 - Motorbase
		The Marina came with either four door Saloon or two door, four seater "Coupe" bodywork, from 1972 an Estate variant was also available.
		The Marina soon found itself a victim of the poor build quality and industrial action that gripped Leyland during the 1970's, not only that the 1.8 gained a reputation for its poor handling characteristics.
		The Marina was eventually replaced by the "warmed-up" Ital in 1980.

		The Marina led a quiet life and after the car planned to replace it, the ADO77 was scrapped due to the Ryder reorganisation of BL in 1974, it remained pretty much unchanged throughout its life.
		The A-series 1275cc engine was a constant companion to the Marina, but the 1798cc B-series engine (shared with the MGB) was dropped in favour of the overhead cam O-series engine in 1978.

		The Morris name was considered to be too mundane for our friends in the U.S.A so the car was marketed as an Austin Marina.
		But if all the Americans had to liven up the Marina was a change of name, the Australians had a better idea - don't change the name - change the engine.
		Those who wanted to liven up their own Marina could look at the Special Tuning catalogue, which listed some 190 parts for the Marina.

	Alternative engines for the Morris Minor
		Fitting the Marina engine requires a lot more work than the Midget engine as there are differences in the flywheel area.Unfortunately Midget/Sprite units are getting hard to come by.
		The difficulty is that it is necessary to fit the Marina input shaft and the entire set of cogs from the Marina to the Triumph box as the gearbox input shaft is too short.
		The Marina B series engine has been fitted, but this engine is large, heavy and gives very little more in the way of performance.

		The Morris Ital was launched in June 1980.
		It took its name from Giorgetto Giugiaro's ItalDesign studio, who had been employed by British Leyland to manage the re-engineering of Morris Marina (produced since 1971).
		The Ital had distinctly different exterior detailing to the Marina, but retained its 1.3 and 1.7 petrol engines and rear-wheel drive chassis which could be traced back to the 1948 Morris Minor.

		The story of the Morris Marina in motorsport is very much one of missed opportunities, caused mainly by inept management of a talented team of engineers.
		What was done with the Marina on a shoestring budget was astounding considering British Leyland had no official motorsports department after the closure of the Competitions Department in 1970.
		The fact is, the engines were available and have since been fitted, the 16v 2.0 Sprint engine in a Marina shell is a devastating piece of kit and the 3.5 V8 went in a treat, especially in an Army-driven machine on a safari rally.

		I bought a 1978 Morris Marina 1.8 Super in summer 1998, after the fustration of the previous year or so of trying to borrow my parents car all the time, I decided to buy it!
		It was for sale at a tyre repair shop in the town where I live, for £500, so I quickly mustered up some cash and sorted out the paperwork.
		I think it is a good looking rare classic car(there are less Marinas around than MG's and Morris Minors combined).
