Automobiles

The overhead camshaft O-Series engine, also used for the Leyland Princess, appeared in 1.7 liter form in 1978 to replace the larger B-Series 1.8 liter models. The Marina was also marketed in Canada as the Austin Marina, in two door coupe and four door saloon forms from 1972 to 1978, using only the 1.8 liter engine, with heavier US style bumpers and emissions equipment. The Canadian Marina had American style bumpers.
