6:23 We've a Trader who brings a Supercharged TR6 in for MOT's. Can't remember which make of Supercharger but it sounds amazing and goes like stink apparently (for a car of its age!). 11:26 Think hid the plans for the 2CV in a barrel so they couldn't be discovered during the war. The 2CV (mentioned 13:53) actually had an engine from a GS to give more oomph so not the puny little 602cc 2 cylinder originally fitted.
We did a TikTok of the car - its got over 400K views ! My style on TikTok is a little different ! www.tiktok.com/@powerfuluk/video/7367094990301924641?lang=en
Thanks for the tour guys. Sorry you missed out on the TR6, Simon, but bargain hunters need to be patient types, I've found! The TR6 has long been a favourite of mine, especially in Magenta, but sadly never got to own one. Plumped for a Dolomite Sprint in Mimosa instead, although that too came in Magenta, but couldn't source a suitable used example at the time. ("So what", I hear you cry!)😂
I had a 1967 Austin Healy Sprite it only had one problem - engine built missing metal ring in head for valve to close on - got new head under warrenty and sold it as fast as I could!!!
Trying to make a reason to justify buying it So far i only have a) Hearse conversion rent for funerals b) Vlog studio / Podcast studio c) camper conversion d) Limo hire
Great selection of cars there Simon. The Holland and Holland Range rovers did they not have gun cases in the back as standard or was it an added extra..
I wanted the TR6 or the Spitfire - kind of regretting not bidding more on the Spitfire but was half hanging on for the TR6 but that went for too much !
