The car that I am going to sell for him is the original colour which is yellow. His car looks a bit brighter than the one above, but I have seen them in red, blue, black and white

Where abouts in the UK are you ?

**GrouchyAdmin** · 11-24-2009, 02:43 PM

No. Failure on Triumphs ain't that great, parts are difficult to find on the side of the pond, and I could have gotten a Spitfire II in that shape for under $2k. I still decided against it.

**MaDalton** · 11-24-2009, 02:44 PM

first and foremost i wouldn't buy a car from great britain cause you have the steering wheel on the wrong side.

What you could buy a spitfire for under 2k usd U should have purchased that and sold it on for that price if is was in as good nick as you say it was

You can buy them for 2k GBP in this kind of condition

The Stag is also far better than the Spitfire mind you Brit cars always beakdown

**Minte** · 11-24-2009, 02:57 PM

The problem with vintage Brit cars is they are maintenance nightmares. I had a TR6 that was beautiful as long as it was parked. It spent more time in the shop than it did on the road. Primarily electrical gremlins.

Yeah very true Triumphs have a big following over here but they are renowed for breaking down

That's the problem - it ran, but it needed a little bit of work. I checked, and the chassis itself was rust free, but there's almost absolutely no way to get parts out here. The top was in dire need of replacement, and it was quite weathered to the point if needing some work to the interior. It was just going to cost too much to be properly presentable.

Nobody out here wants one - parts are impossible to find and I didn't feel like driving it 6 hours at it's paltry 72mph (or thereabouts) to try to turn a one, two grand profit - so I let it go.

**Spunky** · 11-24-2009, 04:02 PM

Looks kinda cool,but maintenance will be a real pain

The South UK. I think for producers, there's only Marino, Terry Stevens, Ben Dover & myself down here.

Yourself, which area are you in?
