    Welcome.

    Only ever been in a TR7 convertible one. Sheffield to Bradford, came back in a BMW 3 series Tourer that my mate traded the TR7 against! That' a nice colour - what is it? My mate's was a sort of pale metallic green.

    I remember Tony Pond rallying his TR8 in my youth.

    Welcome!
    Yes a nice car in a nice setting. That's not Nanmor near Beddgelert is it? Looks familiar.
    A couple of friends of mine managed to upturn a TR7 convertible on Axe Edge near The Cat and Fiddle many years back on an ERO club rally. One blames his subsequent hair loss on the incident! Happy days.
    Good luck with your retirement project.

    It is the unclassified road that runs passed the Ogwen Valley Ranger station.

    Did a few rallies/sprints in my TR7, ended up with gas-flowed head, cams and comp exhaust, eventually melting a piston on the M2 one night!
    Runs a Rover V8 now.

    Ouch!
    I wacked the armco at Goodwood coming out of the chicane in my TR, just marked the rear bumper though...made a few marshals run.
    Found afterwards the rear axle suspension rubbers were shot.
