Paul, I don't know much about any kind of politics. For whatever it's
worth I think the TR7 is just plain ugly. I suspect the reason why
TR7's quality deteriorated because the people who assembled them had
their eyes on anything but this work of horror. Otherwise I think most
of the pre-seven Triumphs were cool LBCs.
