- Genuine questions asked me by passing British car fans whilst I was getting out of my '77 Spit: "Is that a Ferrari?" "Is that a Lotus?" The vast majority of Brits wouldn't know a TR2 (or a Spitfire)

- I'm not sure *I* could tell the difference between a TR2 and a Spitfire running me over. Is the TR2's track wider? I guess I might spot the IRS if the Spit backed over me. Then again there can't be m

- From "Michael Hargreave Mawson" <OC at 46thFoot.com> On the other hand, when I am driving my real Lotus, people ask me, "what kind of kit-car is that?" Maybe I should get this thing fixed up a bit so

- Well, Whenever I run into someone from the UK over here, I tell them I have a Triumph Herald. They almost always have a story of an auntie or some other relative who drove one back home. They may not
