[Tigers] Mk 2 Prototype for sale

Tue Sep 12 15:46:59 MDT 2017

That was very interesting. And while not a buyer I did enjoy reading the write-up. Three things did stand out to me. One, RHD Tigers seem strange with that ‘oh so far to the left’ shifter. Almost as if the driver steers and the passenger shifts. Two, (I go here with some reservation) are those factory rivets? I ask not to contest, just curious. Three, should the buyer be “out of the country” how does one ship and insure the near priceless Mk. II side trim (the ad is a little confusing as to what is currently installed but the images seem to more support the Mk. II trim is not installed)?

I know that we have Tiger web sites that have many of the various, unique Tigers.  However, those pages seem to be independent to the cars themselves.  I don’t recall that they have ALL been amassed in their own special section so as to progressively see one after another.  The Miles and Shelby (Boskoff) Tigers get the bulk of the attention so that until now I didn’t know of these Mark II prototypes.

One of three Mk 2 Tiger prototypes is for sale on the U.K. Ebay site.  Interesting car - has Mk 2 trim on a Mk 1 body.   Originally it had both Mk1 and Mk 2 trim, but the Mk 1 trim was removed.   Only about $120K.
