I’d prefer it with thinner wheels you can actually buy legal tyres for…

Bulbous to the point of ridiculous - I still love the 1954 Arnolt-Bristol roadster.

that front end is pointing at the sky and more ground clearance than a LR defender, could be a really cool looking car though.

The exhaust is so mad here the clearance seems required if not mental.

Remotes?

:thinking:

That’s a beauty! Stunning colour too!

Surprised by the interior, the design has aged well, there’s aspects that don’t look the best part of 40yrs old.

WOW :heart_eyes:

You could buy Hugh Hefner’s one…

Happy Wednesday.

The back bit is not dreadful. There is a certain D-typeiness about it. Alright if you like a bit of bulbous.

This bit should be (if it hasn’t already been) driven in to a wall at speed.

I am now wondering how many bunnies sat here (and why scratch n sniff o’vision was never a thing.)

It is actually a Leyland Royal Tiger. No Tiger Cub was fitted with a O.680 engine; they had the 5.7L O.350 engine…
Also it’s fitted with a Pneumocyclic Transmission with two pedals; not a Pre-select transmission which has three pedals.:nerd_face:

Worrying lack of attention-to-detail from the dealer - chassis plate says tan interior, pictures say black, advert says red; chassis plate says ‘Parmatti Light Blue’ (see pic), car is dark blue with a white stripe… &c &c… Whole thing looks unloved, much as its history suggests - proper ugly duckling.

At least being based on a pre-war saloon explains the axle height…
