British Leyland Princess 2 Range (Test Track)
Stay one step ahead with the Leyland Princess 2.
Overview
British Leyland’s revamped Princess is put through its paces at the Nordo test track in Italy. The new Princess benefitted from a front facelift and a range of new engine sizes designed to improve reliability - and a smaller engine was also offered to keep within new road tax rules. Its reputation today is often less than complimentary but in 1979 the Princess was a real contender in the executive car market.
