The Triumph Herald was definitely ****. There's still a few on the roads here, mostly having been chopped down to convertibles. They have an incredible lock on them though, you can just about turn them in their own length providing you don't break the front suspension in the process.
There's a dude here runs a V8 Triumph TR7 quite successfully in Targa rallying, and there's also a nutter that has wedged a V8 into a Herald
