Default (not me in photo) but I had a green 1973 TR-6

<center><img src="http://www.rose-hulman.edu/~wollowsk/triumph.jpg"></center><p>I ordered a 1974 MGB-GT as I wanted a British sports car but with a (hard) roof. England had a coal mining strike, no coal, no steel, no cars. I bought ($4,600) a used TR-6 that had a hard top. Much better car than the MG as the TR-6 had a 6 cylinder compared to the MG's 4. Drove it for 10 years and over 100K miles before I sold it.

I paid $200 in 1984 and never even got to legally drive the car. I put new qtrs on her, new fllor pans, and was rebuilding the motor when I woke up one morning and she was gone.

Time makes me forget British automotive reliability such as Lucas (prince of darkness) electrics.

Default Having owned Land Rovers, I can feel your pain...

Default my second car was like this one

<center><img src="http://i24.ebayimg.com/01/i/000/7d/d6/75ef_3.JPG"></center><p>only it was a 1979, and had a 4cyl turbo instead of the 5.0. I paid $2500 in 1985 and sold it in 1987 with a blown turbo for $2000.

Car was pretty fast and helped this short/fat/ugly high school kid score girls.
