Fairly priced IMO


Thank you .... I don't mind the comparison to its cousin , I can see how that mistake can be made ..you aren't the first to say it .
The car has had a ridiculous amount of interest but only one person so far has come to view her .
I don't know what the sticking point is , but a lot of people have asked if I have a red one for sale or know of a red one ! So maybe its a colour/finish issue.
I have 2 guys hovering at the moment , one overseas customer and a UK buyer ...so lets see what happens . I am going to replace the noisy water pump and start using the car over the next few weeks ...so that might change things a bit .

If she is still unsold by the end of the Summer , she might end up with a second mono screen and a new paintjob !

You need to get the car out there to some of the events up and down the country. I only took my TR 250 to two events, Prescott Hill Climb and the Bromyard Speed Festival, but I it generated a huge amount of interest. The standard car shows aren't the best places, its no good being parked between a Morris Marina and an Austin Allegro ! Go to where the money is and you will find a buyer.
