Good Points

This was the first car I bought with my own hard earned cash, I still have her as a second car seven years on and if you were to write an economics essay on her she would get an A*! Great fun to drive especially with the roof down, easy to work on and great parts availability - what more can you ask for? Cheap to insure (only half the premium of a rusty Eurobox) and tax exempt.


Bad Points

The usual for a car in its 4th decade, leaks, rusts, rattles, likes to graze on the hard shoulder every now and again, and the doors either open of their own accord or don't open at all! Fuel economy is poor but there are plenty of modern tweaks you can do and there is always the option of switching over to LPG.


General Comments

I love my Triumph Herald to bits and wouldn't swap her for the world, as a first car she was a great tool for practicing my mechanical skills. Yes she has her quirks but thats what makes her a classic! Buy one and join an enthusiasts club and you gain not only a car but a network of good friends and plenty of opprtunities for fun days out and proper old fashioned sunshine motoring.
