1964 Triumph Herald 1200 Conv review from North America
"This is a low budget fun car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Needed paint job and also needed new top, tires and most important TLC.
General comments?
This is by far the slowest car I have ever owned, but the most fun. I can put 4 people (not big people) and go for a ride with the top down. It might take me a lot longer to get there, but we always have fun.
