If I'd still been in my old job my Guv'nor may've been interested.

Seems a good price - have you had much interest ?

My old vitesse


In my checkered motoring past I had a GT6 ( sort of hardback Spitfire ) & a hardtop Vitesse. It had two webbers on the straight six and went like stink
Unfortunately the chassis wasn't quite up to what the engine could deliver ( sounds like an F Body ? ) and it ended up in a Hedge
Fantastically small turning circle as well, so much so that if you really wellied it on full lock it pulled the front tyres off the rims ......oop's.
The Triumph transmissions weren't the best either but my god they could rust !
I almost feel sorry for the younger drivers of today, compared to my youth they just don't have the amazing choice or different cheap cars we had

Me neither, after 3 Humbers . . . all the spares you get are crap.  And expensive !



At least the Yanks keep spare for their older motors.

Not bad at all.  Should buy plenty of shiny things.
