This striking Marlin was built in 1996/97 and first registered in 1998. Based on a Ford Sierra with 2100cc Pinto engine, it appears to have been assembled to a high standard and comes with an extensive history file. There are numerous receipts from Marlin Engineering and other specialist suppliers, 11 old MoTs, original sales brochures, original build instruction manuals and a Dyno chart showing increased power output due to tuning modifications. Bought by the now sadly deceased retired mechanical engineer late owner in 2013, it looks to have been used in European Rallies such as the Italia Sardinia Sportscar Challenge at some point. Last MoTd in June 2023 at c.30,000 miles, although run recently it has not seen much use since and comes with a spare windscreen, spare alloy wheel and current V5c. Offered at no reserve.

For over 30 years, Marlin has been synonymous with innovative design and affordable home-built sports cars. Conceived by ex-Rolls Royce engineer, Paul Moorhouse, the Roadster entered production in the late Seventies causing a sensation with its robust construction and driving dynamics. The nineties brought new engine and suspension options, and Marlin was one of the first to embrace these with the Ford Sierra based Cabrio being the result.
