(THIS IS NOT BASED ON EITHER TRIUMPH HERALD OR MARINA running gear - quite a different car)
Used last year on an Alpine trip to Italy and back to great success by septuagenarian owner -
BMW engine from a 525 Saloon
Not perfect cosmetically with slight crazing to GRP - no damage though, just a patinated car
Accent is loosely on Alfa Romeo 8C type looks - the Italians say they were confused last year.
