dsl ◊ 2011-12-31 18:44	cortina.chris wrote Magnum or Viva GLS? What was the date change? This one does not seem to have the 1800 or 2300 grille badges which I think were fitted on Magnum.
cortina.chris ◊ 2011-12-31 18:52	not sure, maybe GLS was for later cars, was SL still the top viva model for 'M' reg?
dsl ◊ 2011-12-31 19:00	Sunbar wrote Viva 1300 GLS from November 1976 onwards replacing the Viva SL models. - /vehicle.php?id=463090 . Probably therefore OK as a Magnum.
Sunbar ◊ 2011-12-31 19:28	Having owned a 1975 Magnum I know all M and N registered cars were all 'Magnum' with this grille and side trim. (I believe a 1800 engine was an option on the Viva at the time but with the rectangular headlamps.) A light area on the grille next to the inner passenger side head lamp where the 1800 or 2300 badge was, is just visible by changing the picture's properties.
