Advantages: Convertible,great turning circle

Disadvantages: Slow, brakes not great

What a pity that Triumph motor company fade into oblivion.My favouriye car was definitely the Triumph Herald circa 1968. It was a convertible, and although the hood took ages to take down and put up again, it was well worth it.It made you feel important to have a convertible car, and to swan on into a coastal resort with the hood down on a lovely hot, sunny day.
Mine was a light green colour and three years old. The turning circle was phenomenal, it turned on a sixpence. Parking it was dead easy. It was not particularly powerful, but that wasn' the point of this car. It was the image really.
I met a man in a car park the other day, who had the same model as mine, and it brought back memories. I'm now thinking of getting one in good condition, even though the brakes and steering are not up to modern standards, I'll just use it in the summer.
I liked the way he boonet was released on the outside and went forward which was pretty cool.

Surprised this op got over-looked.

I had a 1962 12/50 convertible, and it was great, as you say.
