Looking good, hows it the leg room in the cockpit working out?
The first Cordite?

Simon - Welcome back.
Even a rough coat of paint makes a big difference.
Good luck with the DVLA, hope your V5C application is trouble free.
What size are your MGF wheels?
As my 13 inches wheels look "lost" in the front arches.
Cheers, Paul.

It you get the chance, it would be great to see a few more photos from different angles.
( Head on, rear view, passenger side, etc. )

Hi Paul, wheels are standard 15" but have a 185/65/R15 tyre as opposed to the usual 45 or 55 that you'd get on a modern car. Fills the arch better and looks more suited to the age I reckon.
Only problem is they currently just rub on the fibreglass bulkhead moulding ( but not the chassis) so that is a later 'modification' I'll need to make.

V5 arrived today!
Today's big news is that, after only a week, the DVLA have sent me a spanking new V5 for my now road legal SAMMIO CORDITE!
Insurance the only thing stopping me getting on the road (not for long)
Oh, and the fact that it's a nightmare to actually drive and looks like a dogs dinner at the moment!

Simon - Great news on the V5C, that must have been one of the fastest turnarounds ever.
I take it you have "Sammio Cordite" in the "Make" line and that the "Model" line is now blank.
In which case, this confirms that you don't need to keep Triumph in the new name.
Good luck, Paul.
PS
Surely you mean the car looks like a rolling restoration.

Looks like it sold for £2,500.

Yes I'm happy with that. Off to Holland! Apparently he already has a Sammio

With a bit of luck the new owner will be one of your Dutch "regulars" who will keep us posted on what happens next.
