Hey, there,

I just got this off of USENET.  I found it in a Bay Area only group.

I don't know this person, but, if you're in the market for a TR-8,
check it out.  Although the price does sound a bit high.

                  Later...

Approximately 3,000 of these cars were made before Triumph closed its do
forever.  Most made it to the United States and not that many exist any
It is a fun car to drive and own.  The paint job is shiny enough to see
own reflection in.  The engine is smooth and powerful.  I have all perti
records and manuals for the vehicle.  I'm the second owner and I've had
since 1984.

I'm asking $20,000 or Best Offer on this "not too many of a kind" jewel.
The car was written up a few years ago in Car and Driver as one of the
10 most collectible cars available.

I've enjoyed this car from the start but it's time to move on to other
things.  Serious enquiries only please.
