I'd like to hear more about saloons too, especially since I am considering
buying one sometime next year. But I honestly think it is a function of
demographics. US listers (who are the majority) tend to own TRs. There are
few Saloons or Stags for instance in the US (whe compared to the UK or
Australia anyway) so fewer posts about those cars is probably to be
expected.
But fewer posts on the list doesn't necessarily equate with a weaker marque
overall, the various offline clubs do a great job of promoting the marque.
The scene is looking good in Australi;, there are currently 2 Triumph 2000
Roadsters for sale here (and another one popped up recently). They are ultra
rare and to have two for sale at once with considerable interest shown,
indicates that the marque is being preserved. There are more Stags and
Saloons around than you can poke a stick at too.
Love my TR,
