1977 Triumph 2500S review from Australia and New Zealand
"A bargain stylish cruiser"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Some rust.
Spongy shockers.
Brake pads need replacing.
The seat velour linings have started to fray and wear.
General comments?
I've had two 2500TC'c prior to picking up the "S" which was in very good condition.
The car is quick, and cruises easily at 110km/h, with low revs, however it is a bit heavy around town.
The timber dash and door trim are quite flash, and always draws comment from passengers.
The car is a stylish cruiser, which I use on a daily basis.
