British Leyland

[unstuck]

Thats a pretty tidy triumph/honda, must of been kept in a box in a shed somewhere because those things rust out real bad. I would have it though, good fun on the gravel.

No, the 2.1 engine - used in the Fergy, Phase 1, II and III Vanguard, Triumph TR 1,2 ,3 and 4...and the Leyland 20.

ohh yeah ok the vanguard four wet liner engine... never relised they were the same engine as the TR's tho 2,3 & 4 showen, or thinking about it I just forgot

Why did they not stick with the Sabrina samwich engine of that era?

But this Hondumph I saw was a real classic and a pretty good car too:

Not Triumphs finest hour, what were they thinking?

Thirsty! geez the old landcruiser gets 650km+ for $140 & it's a 3B diesel, gets down to 500 once I start bouncing around the river during the fishing season. Even my A32 Maxima with a 3lt V6 get 650-700km on a tank of juice

Yep, me F100 gets around 900km+ between fill-ups - but then its almost $300 for said fill

ha but that's $300 worth of fun Bit like the cruiser off road...couldn't care less how much it hogs through because it's a shit load of fun going places where most others can't get to

On the button there D. - great style and just enough grunt to put a smile on yer face!

I loved the Vitesse in it's day. The engine made a great sound. My neighbour used to park his convertible in my Dad's open garage. It still rusted to buggery though!

My older brother had two Vitesses, (or should that be Vitessi?) A Series 1, 1600cc and a Series 2, 2 litre. He loved them, particularly the S2. Had to go bigger when he remarried to a chick with 4 kids; plus his own 2. Went to a 504 Pug and has had Pugs ever since. 504, 505, 405, 605, (or maybe 604.)
