Thats in a right old state!

It looks like the Spanish drivers of Majorca don't look after their 75's, its the

same in Benidorm, most of the 75's I have seen there look as if they have

been used for banger racing, unwashed and unloved..

Also notice that it has Contour alloys, very popular on export models..

if it is white, good chance it was a taxi , up in puerto pollensa they are all white, only 75 I saw was a tourer, saw a P reg 800 sterling in pewter grey as well.

been there twice, youll notice that EVERY car has a ding or scrap on it! regardless of age/brand/colour. dont think the spanish can be bothered...mixture of bad driving and hot humid weather i suppose?
