TR5/TR250 Red 250 for Christmas morning!

This morning, my wife had me go out to the garage, and where my TR3 is normally parked, was a red 250, with tan interior! Pretty nice; the hood was open, but somerhing didn't look quite right....

Nevertheless, I was pretty excited! Next to the '3, the 250 is my favorite Triumph.












.....then my daughter came into the bedroom, and woke me up; Christmas morning, let's go open up presents! My new 250, which seemed so real, evaporated away in the diminishing mists of dreamland....

Oh well, at least the '3 is still where it belongs. Santa brought a TR3 tote bag for me.

Happy holidays to all BCFers!

Wish I could dream my 3A resto to a concours finish!.......but then, I would be bored, I guess.

A TR250 just sold on EBAY for just under $12,000. From what was said in the description if true I think it was a good deal.

Hi there Guy,

What big city is Chapin near? I'm about a 45 min drive NW of Greenville.

Happy Holidays,

After several decades of wanting, my wife did buy me my car for Christmas 5 years ago (although she let me pick it out) - she's a keeper (both of them)!

I started with a 3. Then a 250, then a 6 then a 7. Hoping for a Stag to show up now. My wife would never buy me a LBC!
