The 1147cc engine is not exactly a thrill a minute although the later model (engine prefix GD) leaps up to 50bhp, a useful addition with no loss of mpg. All triumph herald models are prone to poor handling on bends and tight corners, however this is usually a driver training problem, you must drive it sensibly and when you approach a bend you keep the power on, this keeps the wheel in negative camber which will deliver you around the bend successfully, the cars can be easily modified to change the handling characteristics. (pity Triumph didn't) I have attained 47mpg on a trip to Cornwall but 1147 models will average 30mpg it the city and 38 on a run, 13/60 models 28mpg in the city 32 on a run, and most models benefit from having overdrive fitted. The seats on early model are very basic, later 13/60 and Vitesse models have better front seats, the rear seats are ok, the van had them as an optional extra and I have never found them to be very successful. Price, well good ones are worth buying, parts are very reasonable priced, lots of suppliers, lots of secondhand and new parts available. Well maintained cars should be reliable, but it is an old car now so anything can happen, the estate and van models can carry a 5cwt load, the saloons and convertible model have a reasonable boot. Overall I would say they are a fun car with lots of personality, there is a huge club interest and social groups based around the car, depending where you live.

Performance:- It's a 13/60 convertible the 13 stands for the 1300cc engine and the 60 for the horse power so that's enough said about the performance other than to say it feels a lot faster than it is!! Build quality:- It's nearly 40 years old, so build quality quality can't be that bad! Although it's had a bit of work done...like a complete restoration in the early 90's and a fair bit done since I bought her in 2001 including convertion to unleaded, steering and front suspension rebuild, complete breaking system rebuild etc etc....... Appearance:- Designed by Michelloti and the coolest car on the Planet! I mean it. Proof? Well, I was parked next to a DB9 the other day and a small goup of people gathered and were discussing the car...Yes, My car, not the DB9! Cost of ownership:- Cheap as chips!! £3k to buy a top notch example and all parts are plentiful and cheap but probably best to know what a spanner is! Fun Factor:- Oh yes! in spades! everybody looks and everybody wants to talk...

It was my first car - I bought it in 1982 - it was already ancient and with a rocker cover full of mayo. But is was rear wheel drive, turned on a sixpence and with skinny tyres it would flick its rear out at every opportunity - much more satisfying than my mum's Metro. It lasted 8 months until its MOT - which it failed of course - rust. Cost me £140, sold it for £60 - I would like a go in another to see how it compares - reckon I might be shocked
