    Have just bought a car :P

    Right, pics here

    It's a 1967 Triumph Vitesse Mk 1. It has a 2l engine which is not too shabby. I'm only the third owner from new, and the first owner kept a notebook with a list of all parts bought and workdone from 1970 right up till 2001.

    Hopefully, once cheque has cleared I can pick it up next weekend

    Don't think the pics are working m8. Sounds nice though, what colour?

    Sorry, pics are working fine. I was getting a 404 error for some reason.

    Nice looking car m8
