I'm 26 and on my 2nd TR, I also founded and run the Youth Group within the TR Register where we have loads of Triumph nuts in their teens and 20's - check out the Facebook group or come and party at Malvern for the TR International:

On the dolly i had £450 TPF&T (with SP30 and 1year NCB) and its now £500 Comp (inc extras's and the above) On the TR7. Thats with Lancasters.

Its still cheaper than most newer cars insurance.

Gee, using that logic, I could be considered a young driver too. I got my first Spitfire when I was 16, sure that was in 1974, but I was really young.[:D]

I had my first TR7 when I was 19. The good old days, living with Mum & Dad, loads of money to burn. [:D]

Then a TR free period of getting married, house, kids etc. [:(]

Now I'm in my 40's, kids are grown up & I've got a TR8!! [:D][:D][:D]
