spuare is the new round! That is innovation.

How can anyone waste $45 million pounds designing those cars? I can recreate the morris marina design for 45 yen.

the marina is the unluckiest because the 3rd time after top gear set it on fire,a piano fell on it,and it happen again at the rwd challenge when james drove and beat jeremy and richard and they were impress and they walk away and a piano fell on it,and again at the jeremy clarkson car movie duel a piano fell on it,and the same thing at top gear

Ha ha, I knew the Marina would win! Must surely be the worst car ever built!

My dad had a 1500 Allegro back in the 80's. The engine mounting once broke and we drove 160 miles home with the crank pulley resting on the chassis, creating a cascade of sparks all round the engine bay. I wonder if UUL 200M is still out there?

@78s4FR: Hi friend this car was scrapped on 01/05/1989. Hope that helps.

Thanks for that. At least it gave 15 years of Allegro pleasure - despite having the heaviest steering known to man, and an engine mounting made of Dexion!

Now all he has to do is compare them to the AMC Gremlin and Pacer.

I must say these two cars are about the ugliest vehicles Great Britain has ever produced. They make the TR7 look sexy.

Anybody who likes either the allegro or the marina is .... TOTALLY UNCOOL !!!! I don't even have a car, but I would but either of these junk buckets even if I was paid to do so. Well, actually I would buy them ... FOR DEMOLITION PURPOSES !!!!!

Let's see if newtons laws of gravity work on automotive disasters.
