TLP 32M - 1974 Manta A 1900 Rallye

 

Owner: Lorna Cullen

I have had the car for about 4 yrs, the colour is flame red but it's more orange than red! The engine is a 1.9 with an automatic gearbox; the car has done a genuine 51,000 miles, and runs like a dream.

In the time I have had the car, I have had to replace the front wings, and also the front seats due to the plastic splitting across the top. All of these, as with anything else due to wear & tear, have all been replaced with original parts.

The car is a Manta Rallye, I have seen a few SR's around but I have yet to see another Rallye. I also have all the original documents to say the Rallye was produced. The differences between the SR & Rallye are the Rallye had larger tyres 185 x 70 instead off 165. The higher compression and a few different trim bits. It also had the usual optional extras available such as the tow bar and matt black bonnet and a choice of three different coach stripes to choose from.
