Spring 1991 saw the arrival of the
Martina. This new model was predominantly aimed at the kit car market and utilised the
running gear and major components from the Ford Cortina MK 4 and 5.
Powered by a Pinto engine, and using the complete
sub frame from the Cortina, the Martina used more parts from the single
donor vehicle than previous component built Marcos models. This helped
reduce the overall cost of the build and again to keep the costs down, the
Martina was offered in pigmented gel coat which was a much cheaper option
than paint.
Both Spyder and Coupe versions
were available, 80 cars were made between 1991 and 1994 at
Westbury.
