There isn't a Marina in the world that looks good Ute or otherwise

The marina that TOPGEAR dropped a caravan on looked pretty good once they were done!

Ha! I'm now on my second one from new. Done 85,000 in this one in 18 months, quite like it actually.

Haha, yeah I was gonna say, piano cushion, but meh.
Tbh, in it's day they would have been close to cutting edge I guess

Holden a close second. Thank fuck for the koreans eh?

XR versions of the AU thank you. Amazing what a new nose, spoiler, Tickford lowering kit and wheels did to the standard unit.

The Taurus was hideous - always reminded me of a slug.

Marina vans can look pretty sharp too.

Your jealousy is showing, just because YOU missed the chance to buy it doesn't mean you have to be so mean about it!
