bargain! wonder how much it will go for...

i always wonder how much it would cost to get it back to as it should be...i guess its the personal satisfaction though!

Bargain for someone! Id rather it than the TR8...British Layland didnt make the TR7/8 too sexy! Shame, i love the old TR's

Matt, I agree the OLD TRs.. up to 6 ..just great But the 7 just a pile of crab. You should take yourself down the garden and beat yourself with a birch branch untill you bleed, then have another think about it.

I paid £800 for my (non-runner) 280i in 2004.

It went straight through the MOT, after freeing off brakes.

Then I spent another two and a half grand on it.

Typo error on my part! I meant to say that i liked up to the 6 and the 7/8 were a load of stinky crabs....dont need to beat myself at the end of the garden...although whatever puts the motion in your ocean eh?!!

Tell you what, I'm glad I don't have an old injected TR. The seals in the injection system don't like unleaded and they can spring leaks like a Government department.

No,not on these pages. A Wedge, on these pages is a Tasmin or Tasmin derived TVR, thats why the forum is listed under TVR, Wedges. TR7 would be under Triumph along with Heralds, or British Leyland along with the Maxi, or Princess, which is also Wedge shaped. Aston Martin and DMC also made a pointed at one end, blunt at the other, Wedge shaped car, but we dont get much input from their owners, they dont think of their cars as a Wedges so why should you ??

Yes I know, Wifey told me cus I cant read big words.

Still dont make a TR7 a Wedge. Not even Gandalf could pull off that magical transformation.
