Happy days as I sample two absolute favourite Triumphs of mine - a Sable Brown, New Zealand-assembled 2500 automatic and a Coventry-built 2.5 PI with manual/overdrive transmission. Both are in stunning condition with beefy six-cylinder engines, gorgeous Italian styling and fine road manners.

This one was an absolute swine to film. My first attempt resulted in unusable in-car footage, and the second suffered sound issues, so I apologise for that. Improving all the time...

Many thanks to Chris of the Triumph 2000/25000 Enthusiasts New Zealand Facebook group for letting me drive both of these cars.
