1976 Triumph TR8:

This ex-English-built car, competed in Targa events before being purchased by Leon and converted for rallying by Mal Clark and advised by Mark Parsons. It will be used to compete in the New Zealand Rally Championship in the historic class. It has a very fast V8 engine and true historic specifications. It sounds amazing and tends to spend more time going sideways that straight – making the Triumph a crowd favourite.
