I am happy to confirm that this is a beautiful car. I haven't
"inspected" her, so don't take that statement as a guarantee of
mechanical and electrical perfection, but she certainly looks the part.

If you want to swap Sophie (or if anyone else out there wants to swap
any running Triumph, pre-1976) for a 1990 Saab 9000S, let me know.
