I'm really enjoying the series, It's just a shame it's not on a more popular channel like Channel 5, The finished Anglia was stunning, I won't lie, I was VERY jealous of the lad who's car it was! And I'm glad the replacement car wasn't hidden up like the MGB was in that other program. (spits on the ...

Is this the look your going for?

I wasn't sure about Helmingham myself due to them charging £12 to show your car, would out us displaying our cars they wouldn't have a show, But we are taking my wife's little cousin who likes cars so i decided that she would like that the most due to the concourse drive part. I'm taking mine to bot...

You know, If i was you I'd be looking for a Triumph 2500 or a Triumph 2.5 Pi, Both are very nice roomy cars, The Pi's have a history for temperamental injection systems but they sound bloody lovely with a full stainless system fitted. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3117/3498735152_ff05ba5daf_z.jpg 1...

Oh Er!, I stand corrected then , I just couldn't recall seeing many L plates so I googled it and Wikipedia said October 1972.

Good luck finding a tax exempt one, they didn't come out until October 1972! The Rover P6/Triumph 2000 is a good shout though.

I think you've missed requirement "B" Rich ;) Your making the right choice not to buy a MGB, they are ten a penny around here and do nothing for me, What do you need from a car?, Does it need to be a sporty open top or can it been a family car like a Viva or a Escort or better still a 105E, I'm sure...
