I bought this car in November 2012. The car has been garaged and well cared for. I am selling to make room for a new toy. Here is the description that was in the Ebay ad by the previous owner:

This is a totally original rust-free car that I have owned since 1996. I  purchased this car from my neighbor in Boca Raton Florida in December of 1996. I had it transported in an enclosed carrier three years ago to our summer home in Maine. 

Please keep in mind that this is not a restored car. The paint, seats, carpets, interior panels, wood dash are all original and how they left the factory in June 1976. I did replace the redline tires and the convertible top three years ago in Florida before having it shipped to Maine. The paint looks like the day it was delivered although there are a few tiny nicks here and there. This car has NEVER been painted or ever in an accident. I replaced the original redline tires when the car had approximately 34,000 miles on it because they were starting to dry rot. The tread looked brand new. I also replaced the original British Leland radio with a newer CD Player.

The mileage is documented and I have EVERY single piece of literature when the car was sold new. The Bill Of Sale which is dated August 16, 1976 from Whitehaven Toyota/Triumph in Germantown, Tennessee. Also included is the original window sticker which shows a MSRP of $6397.50 and the factory options of Michelin Redline tires and a Tonneau Cover. The original driver's handbook and the British Leyland Passport To Service folder as well. I have two sets of original keys and two sets of spares. The service records date back to the delivery date. I replaced the seat belts because the passenger seat belt would not retract. My wife would not ride in the car without a working seat belt. These were purchased from Moss Motors.

Over the past sixteen years I have replaced the clutch (2009) and all of the brake & clutch hydraulics as well. It has also had a new exhaust system and complete brake job in the past five years. The oil is changed every 3000 miles w/Castrol GTX 20 w/50 and I did have a "spin on" oil filter adapter installed several years ago. All of the service records will be included.

Included is the original jack, lug wrench, and jack handle. The spare tire is a newer Reline with loads of tread. The original tonneau and boot for the convertible top are stowed in the trunk.

This car runs and drives like a brand new car. I would not hesitate to jump in and drive it to California! This is the last year of production for the TR6 and it's a June production cr which is the second to last month of production. Remember, anyone can buy a restored car, but it's only original one time.

Jaguar F Type V6 S vs Triumph Street Triple R in open-air track attack

Sun, 21 Sep 2014

Typically, these track battle videos pair up car against car or, in more disparate circumstances, car versus crossover, as we saw the other day. While the outcome of that battle was quite predictable, what'll happen when an equally fetching (and fast) four-wheeler is put up against one of the icons of the two-wheeled world? Evo just had to find out.
Matching up a Jaguar F-Type V6 S Convertible against a Triumph Street Triple R is at least more of an even fight than the last battle between the Porsche Cayman GTS and Macan Turbo. The Triumph has a 675-cc engine to work with, and is very light. Meanwhile, the Jag has a thumping 380-horsepower, 3.0-liter, supercharged V6 to haul about it's considerably heftier heft. Who will come out on top?
You'll need to watch the full video to find out.
