James May discusses the perfect gift for the ladies: a 1971 Triumph 2000 Mk II.I decided it was time to buy her indoors her own car, so she could get out more. By buying her a Seventies Triumph I would ensure she never got too far.Forward planning. You can't beat it.

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.
2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.
3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.
4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
I liked this line: "...his beloved car would not be turned into a submarine or a lunar module or be driven into every five minutes by Richard Hammond."

I hadn't seen a Triumph sedan since I was a kid, I really enjoyed reading that some still survive.
