1981 Leyland Maxi (1748 cc reg sept-81) FTR 909X (used)
1978 Leyland Princess 2200 HLS (2227 cc). Now this is a model that goes by many names. Production began in 1975, prior to British Leyland's move away from different marques... and the 'Princess' (initially just the 1800 or 2200 depending on engine size) was available branded Austin, Morris, or Wolseley. From September '75 it became the Princess. Like the Allegro (ADO67) the Princess was designed by Harris Mann, but unlike the Allegro, it remained close to his original wedge-shaped concept. But the similarities between the two cars are certainly there. This one was registered in November 1978, by which time the various British Leyland brands had been brought together and is badged Leyland Princess. Actually, the model was revised in July 1978, and this is a Princess 2 - and the top-of-the-line HLS variant with 2.2L E-series six-cylinder engine. Very cool car indeed!
