Hi to All,
My name is Keith and I'm a newcomer to this forum, though I'm not new to Triumphs. In the early 1970s, I owned a '66 Spitfire (my first car) and then a few years later, a '63 TR3B. I'm now in the initial stages of looking to purchase another TR2 or TR3, which brings me to my question, somewhat philosophical in nature: All things being equal (car condition, price, etc.), is there a "distinct" difference in owning/maintaining/driving a TR2, versus a TR3, versus a TR3A (or B)? I'm certainly aware of the stylistic and mechanical differences, but does that translate into a different owning/maintaining/driving experience among the models? I know that some of you will say, "whichever one you like," but I'm wondering whether there's truly a difference?
Thanks in advance for your input and comments.
