  Why do we have a new web site ? PDF Print E-mail  
 

old_web_siteAs with most things in the world of Computing, there is a constant process of change and improvement. The software that the old web site ran on is no longer being supported as a newer version has been released. That does not mean the old site was going to stop and fall over, it just meant that it would slowly become dated compared to the new and exciting features offered with the new version.

Aside from the slightly different appearance, there are many new features available to the Public, TSOAQ members and the TSOAQ Committee.

The old TSOAQ website can still be seen here but you can not make changes to it.Frown

  Is the TR6 really that much better than the 7? PDF Print E-mail  
 

Being in the enviable (?) position of owning these 2 icons of the British Motor Industry with my wife Lynne, and being doubly blessed in being able to drive them around the balmy environs of South East Queensland, a thought has occurred to me on many occasions - why does the world love the 6 and shun the 7?

Having access to both must surely put me in a position to undertake some form of comparison. So here it is - the "road test" I've never read, Triumph TR6 vs TR7. (Pass my Jezzer Clarkson head please).

Enough of the introduction then and on to a brief review of the ‘DNA" of these two very different cars;

image016Now. Every one has their own special way of doing things. I tend to excel at really crazy ways of doing things mostly because I'm always looking for a quickest way out.

Secondly I would not recommend trying this at home, all the usual safety warnings and legal indemnities etc etc etc

Although I did do it at home Tongue out
