In fairness, it was a very practical wagon in its class with a wide choice of engines. It was also much better looking than the equivalent sedan ... |

In UK volume market terms - Sierra, 405, Cavalier. In terms of a UK-designed estate eligible for a British design award - none. |

The MG Montego Turbo was decent enough. Fast too. |

Possibly the most unpleasant car I've ever driven was a Maestro diesel. For this one, estate was introduced Oct 84, but I think the colour is later. Anyone know much about the Montego Countryman edition - Sept 89 onwards as limited version, then normal production after Nov 91? |
