I recall in the UK new models or variants came out mid year. I'm thinking
that in the US new models came out at the beginning of the year. Correct me
if I am wrong.
If this was the case, I'm assuming a Mk2 Stag was released in the UK mid
year. Would US customers get the Mk2 earlier?
How did Triumph release new models for each region?

The new registration letter came out halfway into the year so as to even out=
 demand for the new models that were usually available starting in September=
 / October. Everyone wanted the =E2=80=98M=E2=80=99 reg. cars rather than th=
e =E2=80=98L=E2=80=99 regs. If the letter change also coincided with new mod=
els, then literally no-one would buy the old stock. Growing up next to Longb=
ridge I remember they would retool and restock for the new models during ind=
ustrial fortnight in August while the plant was also being cleaned and repai=
red.
