Be very careful. There are VERY few TR6's that are worth that much money. And
most of them are not for sale on a used car dealer's lot. The best cars are
sold from club member to club member and are NEVER advertised. Join your local
Triumph club, the 6Pack, and the VTR. Go to meetings. Learn as much as you can
about the cars. Go to some British0 car shows. Talk to the owners of the cars.
More than likely you will find the car that you are looking for - for much
less than the one you are looking at now.
Good luck,
Ken Nachman
