It came down to a difference in personality: Triumph were raucous, snarly
little things, all torque and attitude, while MGs were more refined, often
slower, but usually better built
Hey Joe,
I know as an owner of multiple Triumphs that for much of the glory days of
the competition between the two marques, one had a lot of choices of
different models with Triumphs. Triumphs evolved over the years that they were
produced. Three distinct changes in the legendary Hairy Chested TR series,
several changes in the Spitfire series and then modern Shape of Things to
Come the last of the TR series. Not to mention Stags, Heralds, etc. "Variety
is the spice of life." With MG it basically came down to two types. You
had chrome bumper and rubber bumper in midget or regular size. Ha! No
comparison!!!!!
