Bad Points

If you crash at any speed you're gonna die! If a modern car crashes into you at any speed your gonna die! In fact I find driving my car pretty hairy most of the time, especially in the wet, single speed widscreen wipers doesn't help, and once in a thunderstorm all my brake fluid drained out from somewhere (I suspect the rear drums although I've never been able to prove it and the problem hasn't reoccurred ) which was mildly concerning, I say mildly because she really isn't good at stopping anyway! Of course when driven sensibly most of these things aren't an issue


General Comments

Nowt general about the Triumph Herald.You can fall in love with the Triumph Herald instantly, and as soon as you drive it around for a while you realise how many people there are out there of have fond memories of this little car. Yes, as far as insurance goes it's cheap and you get the road tax perks that you would with any classic, but that has little to do with the joy of owning such a beast...everytime i'm out of the Herald for awhile I think how nice it would be to own something a little bit quicker (okay a lot quicker). Then as soon as I get back in the car the smile is plastered across my face. I think smile for mile she's unbeatable, B roads, Roundabouts, and driving in the city are all an absolute hoot, anyway it's been six years and I've still not bought that quicker car.
