Stunning TR6

pab · 12th July 2011, 21:45

During a visit to andywilli at A&L Automotive.

I had the pleasure of looking round this beautiful early example of British engineering at it's best.This TR6 was truly amazing..This car has just benefited by a new clutch fitted.

Mmmmm I do like those, I was once put in touch with an owner (who was fussy about who he let work on his) to sort out a braking problem which I did & he took me for a "high speed" road test & when I commented "Do you not think you should make sure the brakes are right first?" he replied "I'm THAT confident in what you've done" it was a stunning car in Mimosa Yellow
