Title: Random cars seen today
Post by: Manky Monkey on September 11, 2017, 09:41:31 PM
Passed this nice condition TR7 today.  
In rally livery, (anyone know what rally series or year? Or is that some sort of promotional graphics?), & across the road from a garage specialising in race car prep', so presumably tuned to suit.
Triumph's TR7 range seem to be a bit of a "Marmite" car-some people love 'em, some hate 'em. I quite like them, but I guess, mainly cos they were around in my youth.
