Good decision on the Bond Equipe, Triumph 2000 MK1 rusted well compared to the Amazon, the fuel injection on the later MK1 was a Lucas Mechanical system.
Total nightmare and unreliable a lot of the time, fitted to the TR6 and I've had experience with those for many years.
Wouldn't have one on the drive.............Volvo and Triumph not in the same yard let alone stable..............each to their own of course.

Simple solution do not cross bridges until you come to them.

Past money is spent and we do this for the love of the cars.

Carry on exactly as you are until either you stop enjoying it or someone stops you.

Amazon, with over riders, is about the same length. Triumph is wider. Amazon is higher. MKII Triumph is quite a bit longer.
