<html><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></head><body dir="auto">The new registration letter came out halfway into the year so as to even out demand for the new models that were usually available starting in September / October. Everyone wanted the ‘M’ reg. cars rather than the ‘L’ regs. If the letter change also coincided with new models, then literally no-one would buy the old stock. Growing up next to Longbridge I remember they would retool and restock for the new models during industrial fortnight in August while the plant was also being cleaned and repaired.<br><br><div dir="ltr"><blockquote type="cite">On Oct 14, 2020, at 5:10 PM, DAVID MASSEY <dave1massey@cs.com> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">

Subject: [TR] Regarding Triumph variants<br>

<div id="yiv0450980929">
<div dir="ltr">I recall in the UK new models or variants came out mid year. I'm thinking that in the US new models came out at the beginning of the year. Correct me if I am wrong.
<div>If this was the case, I'm assuming a Mk2 Stag was released in the UK mid year. Would US customers get the Mk2 earlier? </div>
<div>How did Triumph release new models for each region?</div>
