Our new car...it's a classic!

[Vigilante]

Hi,
My dad bought this car for us to play around in

Kudos for the first one to guess what kind of car it is =).

Hints :
1) It's a 1971
2) It's British.

Mph, snort. Okay no idea. But the hawtness factor doesn't do it for me.

I think its real hawt =).

 

[Qonfused]

It's ALMOST hawt... 6.7/10 on the hawtness scale.

Triumph TR6?

I love dinky little cars like that, how much did it set you back?

You got it =). My dad has always wanted a TR6, and we were lucky enough to find one 20 miles away, in his price range, and in good enough shape.

They were originally asking $7500, but my dad got them down to $6250. It's not in perfect shape, but it's very solid and runs great.

Looks fun

I'm on the hunt for a car at this very moment.. I am trying to purchase a car right when I get my license, and I have been looking for cheap used cars.. I don't think I am going to find one..

Nice car by the way..

You can't compare a triumph and a porsche..it's like comparing pubes to your dick.

 

[Ennui]

LMFAO.

Classic quote, there.

Ah, but the dick is so much better than the pubes. I shave the pubes. I keep the dick. Perhaps more personal NF than others want, but hey.

The Porsche is the dick

Shamrock, what kind of car are you looking for?

 

[Shamrock]

Just any sporty car with low mileage.. Around 25k miles, that is also priced under $10k.. I have found some cars, but they were old 1930s or 1981s that were huge ass trucks and what not..

 

[ssiilleenntt]

Sweet....

Get a used Miata MX5

sporty, good handling, fun to drive

Those are very nice cars. The only bad part is that I need to make some money in the upcoming months. I just need to get a job, but I don't know of any place around me that is hiring.. Bah..

Then stick a turbo on it =).

Although, if you did that I'd have to make fun of you and call it a ricer.

Its zippy. Weighs only a ton and has an inline 6.

I first saw this car driven on Top Gear (if you ever get a chance, check this show out. It's a british show about cars and they do a whole lot of wierd\cool stuff. Like seeing if an Apache helicoptor can get a missile lock on a Lotus Esprit. Very cool.) The guy was literally freaking out about how uber-cool this car was.

That would be Jeremy Clarkson. A god of motoring and damn funny. Top gear is now so popular, its gone beyond a car show and become family watching. Its so damn funny.

Also nice car, my neighbour used to have one and he cried when his wife made him sell it (the tr6 not the carrera GT).

 

[Vigilante]

I love TopGear. I watch it religously every wednesday at 10.

 

[Beerdude26]

Mazda MX5 Ftw!

 

[Greatgat]

Mazda MX5 Ftw!

Speaking of Mazdas, I love the Mazdaspeed 6. I wish I could afford one.

 

[Vigilante]

Meh....mazdas dont do much for me. As a matter of fact, no japanese cars do.

I tape it every single week and make my mum watch it with me =)

Shamrock if you lived where i did, i could really help you, we have a 69 mustang, olive green, and WOW it's in a pretty good shape, the one who sold it to us was the second owner, not even a body scratch, and yes i mean it, the owner actually burnt the color and re-painted it like the original, the price is about 5500 USD,

Oh yeah maybe. I've only seen that one once, but either way, it was still very cool to see.

 

[dream431ca]

Nice car..but a death trap..with all the SUV's and big trucks going around, it's not safe anymore to drive small cars.

My dad has an old jaguar, here's a pic from a website:

It's a 1986 Jaguar XJS..everything original (the rims are more expensive then my ford piece of crap car )
