The Pics of my 1800 on the road thread

Correct, Peter. I think it's got a Weber conversion but that's it.

They are great machines. A couple of years ago I had what is known as a poor man's Morgan. It is a machine called a Marlin Roadster. They were a kit car based on either a Triumph Spitfire or a Morris Marina. Mine was Marina based but with a Ford 1.6 ohc engine. They weren't a replica as such but were reminiscent of a flat rad Morgan. I had wanted one for years and eventually found a nice one in Scotland. Unfortunately it had to be sold when a new central heating system was required. I'll sort myself out another old British rag top some day.

When the first production P1800 cars were being built at Jensen's factory in 1960 at West Bromwich, the Jensen company was making their own cars in very limited production. The model in production at that time was the Jensen 541S, of which just 128 were made.
I thought it would be interesting to see the cars side by side. The 541S is a 1961 car, whilst the Volvo is a 1800S of 1965.

Nice to see pictures of other forum members cars.

Here are two pictures of my '68 B20B on holiday this summer. The first one was taken outside a restaurant in Wildert (northern Belgium); the second outside a holiday cottage near Chartres (France).
