marko Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 I got this one.....a genuine early UK 150 BHP car... £11,500 as is... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
marko Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Neil, Not everyone has £20k plus for a restored car and not everyone has the ability to restore a car themselves.... So..... thankfully people have lots of options from basket cases to concours and everthing in between Nick, Neil is a man of few words....a friend of mine, can be quite annoying with his little quips but nevertheless a decent bloke..... You'll get used to him... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

marko Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 I would say, get any TR inspected properly...I've seen some £20k plus cars that are questionable to say the least... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
roocarl Posted February 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 The Yellow one is a right hooker :-) do you have any more pics Marko ? also seen this white one for £11250 with new chrome wires www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C585614 I also have a 70's VW camper that are priced similar you can get a half decent one for around £10- 12k but a restored one is £20k but I have seen plenty of bodged overpriced campers lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Smith Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 the yellow one was a left hooker....! Nothing wrong with that providing it's been done correctly, hence Mark's advice to get it inspected properly! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

roocarl Posted February 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Is there a big difference in the 0-60 and mid range of the 125 and 150 ,what is the difference is it just a fast road cam or more ? Do any of you guys know this TR bitz company do they have a good rep ? I do quite like the Magenta but could imagine its not everyones choice , are they less popular ? Sorry about all the questions but gleaning knowledge of the more experienced seems sensible :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
marko Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 TR Bitz are a good supplier.... Colour does affect the values no doubt, Magenta is an aquired taste but I quite like it.... CP Series 150 BHP tax exempt cars are the most desirable.... but opinions vary..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest ntc Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) I have had enough of this one leave you all to it Edited February 22, 2015 by ntc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TRTOM2498PI Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 There is a difference between a stock 125bhp (CR model), and a stock 150bhp (CP model), despite what people say. 125bhp are a little smoother and easier to live with around town though. As above, have one inspected thoroughly. Body and chassis are everything. ! Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
roocarl Posted February 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 I looked at the £11500 150bhp car today that car not really for me , but loved the driving experience definately want one now ! I have 2 more to look at so fingers crossed :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
