My grandfather bought a TR2000 MK1 from Cleveland Jaguar 
in 1966 or 1967, to replace his traditional Austin. He had a 
fair amount of trouble with it. One (very) big item was that 
the rear suspension mounting broke away from the chassis on at 
least two occasions. Apparently this was a common problem with 
the early model. I don't know whether Triumph devised a fix for 
this, but you might want to check into it before purchasing one 
of these vehicles.
