G'day

I suspect that the bloke is having trouble telling the difference between a 
Austin-Healey and a 
Triumph TR2/3/4.

The Triumph 4-cylinder engine has its origins in the Ferguson tractor and there 
is no connection 
with the Morris built C-series six-cylinder.

However I wonder if there is some connection with the highly secretive 
Austin-Healey fitted with 
the Ferguson Research Formula Ferguson (FF) four wheel drive system?
