1982 Morris Ital 1.3 review from UK and Ireland

The synchromesh on 2nd gear never worked.

It refused to start if there had been even a hint of rain or damp.

The flasher unit went three times.

The wipers started to go slow after about five minutes of use.

This car handles like a dodgy shopping trolley on a bad day.

Pulling away from the traffic lights it might just beat a tractor in good light and road conditions.

Why on earth was the radio positioned facing away from the driver? How to have an accident in one easy lesson.

I think that there was more rust then paint on it when I finally gave up on it after 18 miserable and expensive months.

Even the car dealer whom I asked to take it in part ex, said "you are bloody joking aren't you, mate? What the hell would I do with this thing?"
