I hear that with the recession classics are becoming investment choices, maybe it’s the right time to get that Triumph TR8?
All the genuine TR8’s were wrong hand drive though and possibly missing a pedal as well.
WOT !! no brakes :eek:
I picked up a 87 Porsche 944, with FSH, 10 months MOT for the bargain price of £1400… So, yes it is the time to pick up some Retro Classics for a bargain price… loads of weekender second cars on the market as people try to free up some cash.
And it’s a buyers market as well… you can pick and choose.
Oh no… here we go again!
You mean to say all the genuine TR8’s were the only ones correctly made!
and Tupperware free… LMAO
Some irony in that the Rover V8 in the TR8 originally came from Buick. Amazing they never sold the MGB GT V8 in America, that car would have done so well.
The Triumph Stag always sounds like it has a larger engine than 3,000ccs!
Buick were the first to put the engine into production but the design goes back even further and may have involved a French boat engine.
I would rather set fire to my own feet than buy a Triumph Snag.
Driving somebody elses lovingly restored example would not be a problem however.

It’s funny how Triumph were once known for manly sportscars, and then car’s like the TR7 and Stag became known as cars for hairdressers.
Smokin’ tires in simpler times. In the '70s it was either this or get an Altair 8800 to play the tune happy birthday, lol.
