Lovely..

I miss my coupe. It was so beautiful, but I admit it was harsh to drive really when lowered 40mm.

Coupe's look nice, so much better without the grill. Could do with something smaller for work :roll:

I would have loved to have had the 420 ready for that, maybe next time!

No 800 owned at the moment, but i do own a very gay purple 216 coupe. Looking forward to rebuilding my 420 GSi Turbo :)

I like the 400 estate. I think it was called the countryman. Does that make me weird? :P

AFAIK, the Countyman was a variant of the Montego Estate, I think that the 400 was just the tourer but I am with you in so much as a prefer it to the other versions.

Surely the old boxy shape 200 saloon was the mk1?

The 400 Tourer is a very nice shape, I agree utterly and completely.

At some point I wouldn't mind going down the route that Sy is currently rebuilding, and making a 420 Turbo Tourer.

It was in Monarch (?) colours but is now painted up as you see it in that photo.

I like them but wished they'd altered the rear lights and made the opening wider. I've nearly bought one a couple of times in the past but that always put me off.
