The question in our garage is who is sharing with whom? We have 3 75's, as you'll see, and no other vehicles except a BMW F650GS motorcycle. Unfortunately room is somewhat short, so the oldest 75 (2000 2.0 litre) is being relegated to the outdoors, and will soon be up for sale. Shame, as it's a lovely car to drive and is actually more comfortable that the other two.

A 1300 FWD I assume? (front wheel drive)
Fantastic! That was the last quality car Triumph made IMO. With its thick pile carpets and Wood trim and confy seats & oodles of sound proofing.
You can even change the clutch in a hour without removal of gearbox!!

It all went down hill on quality from the TOLEDO onwards, although the Dolly Sprint was a great car!!

Indeed a FWD and I agree with all you say. The thing that really rings my bell is the way that the doors close, shear class and such a quality sound.

My 75 shares its space with the wife's Ford black Ka. She insists her car goes in the garage.

My 2004 75 Diesel tourer Auto CDT shares with the 2004 CDTi Saloon Manual but we keep the 2005 ZT 260Se locked away for its own safety!
