     Being on the digest, I'm not sure if someone has already commented 
     on this one, if so, I apologize in advance.
     
     I just received a sale flyer in the mail from Jlube showing a photo 
     of a car in overheating distress on the cover, driver attempting to 
     hitchhike to get repairs.  Sort of implies that this is what 
     happens if you do not take care of your car.
     
     Of all the cars available to the advertising people, why oh why did 
     they choose a well worn TRIUMPH?  
     
     Not just any Triumph, but, let's see if I can describe it:  4 
     doors, hardtop, TRIUMPH badge on the left front of the bonnet 
     (identical to the badge on the right rear of my '72 TR6), and a 
     grill emblem that shows '1500'.  I couldn't tell if it was RHD or 
     not.
     
     I'm not too familiar with the non-TR series, but my guess would be 
     a Herald.  Maybe the ad manager drives an MG????
