<b>Hi all, I'm Steve from Suffolk in England. I recently bought the beauty before you, as a stop gap for winter. As I always wanted one when I was a kid and my other classic (Austin 1300) is in need of a metal magician[8D]. Had a real lemon TR7 in yellow (appropriately)and it nearly put me off but here she is!</b>
<b>Looking forward to gleaning some valuable info from those in the know and buying some spares to keep her on the road!</b>

Welcome! Very good looking car. I don't usually care for the brown that they used back then but the two tone is very sharp. You'll find that any problem you may have with it someone here has already found a solution to it.

Welcome Steve - I think I saw your new car advertised for sale quite recently down here in Dorset, or am I dreaming?
Looks a nice tidy example, any history with it?

OMG they have done the same to another only messing
I'm not sure which i prefer brown roof or gold roof
brown and gold would be for me the most unlikely colour scheme but i have to say i quite like it [8D]

gold and brown texture like sun,
Lays me down with my mind she runs
Throughout the night
No need to fight
Never a frown with gold and brown
