[Tigers] Factory 289 in Mk1...?

[Robert Jaarsma]

Allan,
The window sticker of my Tiger 9470858 was publiced on the TE/AE Rootes
Review of April 1998. It has no dealer mentioned, p.o.e. Boston and
added on "Installation of competition Cobra 289 engine.  Price: $ 600.00
Transportation:  $30.00.
With the optional heater, white walls, Tonneau cover and seat belts the
total price went from $3,425.00 to $4,199.00.
Somebody who worked at the time at a dealer in Rutland VT, confirmed
once that they indeed did pick up Rootes cars in Boston. This possibly
was a car, Rootes used for a show or something, and that Rootes tried to
unload afterwards???
