1968 Meson Avant PSV-002 review from UK and Ireland
"Very rare interesting piece of Britain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Mainly build problems. Car is a Kit car based on a TR6 chassis, TR6 running gear with O/D gearbox. Mainly spent time tinkering and improving.
General comments?
Very powerful and lots of fun. It's a rare car here in the UK and was never exported. A local man built it in 1968 from a damaged TR6.
Fibre glass body makes for interesting motoring, especially for that silky Triumph engine. Gives a great power to weight ratio. I have never seen another one in the UK.
