To attest to the popularity of the Triumph Marque in the 60's and 70's, a
TR-3A was central in the movies "La Doche Vita" and "Diner," also in the
Jane Fonda/Robert Redford movie of a Niel Simon play, "A Sunday in the
Park," or some such name; a couple of killers in a Steve McQueen movie
drove a black TR-6, and many more...

I don't remember seeing an MG ever, as a Marque of Distinction, except in
the Rodney Dangerfield movie  "Back to School," where the owner was a
pompous jackass...does this tell us something?


 
Cheers...
