TR4/4A A Golden Triumph TR4

[3798j]

The car is the star. Not a great movie (plus it's in French), but the footage of the TR4 is pretty neat. If you're pressed for time, part 2 is the more interesting. There are some interesting "mistakes" along the way too, so keep an eye out for them.

This will not have broad appeal (tried to show my wife, she walked away in the middle).

Don't you hate it when that happens to your new paint job?

I like how he was working the wheel, yet the car was going straight...and the girl was still asleep.

Reminds me of the old Steve Martin line, "Those French have a <span style="font-style: italic">different</span> word for <span style="font-style: italic">everything</span>"!

TR4's are Great !

Ouch, painful to watch its offroad adventure as well as the end! It did gain a nice Surrey top after the paint job, but I don't think that was on the car that burned. (Whew!)

Watched a couple of minutes of it. Couldn't handle the suspense

GoldFinger is in there... The Golden TR4, in French, with a James Bond bad guy of GoldFinger...

Cool cap, man. Did you catch the gas gauge on empty in Part 2?

It just goes to show you; "Triumphs" were / are well built cars.
