I've never seen an ADO16 referred to as a "Marina" before?!
That's what they called them in Denmark. I've got a Tekno toy (Danish equivalent to Corgi) somewhere of a Morris Marina

Got a couple of those Polistil models. It came in red or yellow. They also did a street version in metallic lime green.

Of mini models..... about 7 or so years ago - I think for the Christmas time market - Marks and Spencer had a self assembly model of a white and black mini. Made by WELLY. Bigger scale than the usual Corgi but not as big as the Solido. I got one and found that it was a lovely model of an Innocenti. Still got it in the attic.

At Brooklands before Tesco and Mercedes dug the place up.

Note even The Works had trouble getting the arch trim to sit right.

:o Alexander converted 1959 and 1960 Mini Minors, the first ones together with the Downton ones. The year was 1963, those where the days.
