It is supposed to be triumphant (haha) or something. Also my mum loves these cars, so I would vote low cool now as well if I could revote.
 
Not many of these things still exist. Cool
 
A friend of mine has one of these (well, technically he has 3 if you include his other project car and his donor car) and it just looks right when the sun comes out. Sure the engine is unreliable and sure the roof on his often won't go down fully after the last owner broke it slightly but when it's driving down a country lane in the sunshine it sounds and looks amazing.

Cool for me.

Like the styling, but I don't get why this car is named for a male deer.

Low cool.

Because it has a male deer as a badge.

There are about 7500 left in the UK alone, which seems like a lot when you consider that there are only 2900 Ford Escorts left.
 
Note: The car went from a SZ to a low cool cos mum loves it. Also it is kinda a bit girly compared to say this:

Says the person with an "I love Justin [Bieber]" avatar. :rolleyes:

To be fair, that avatar of his was the result of a bet. A bet that, if one isn't able to tell, he lost... It's not like he asked to have such an avatar, knowing that.
 
I am still in school :)
And learning in a forum is a lot more fun than school :P

Because it's called a stag. A stag is a male deer.

Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Jesus Christ, does it matter?

I think a deer badge would fit much better on a truck.
 
A classic. Really cool car, would definitely own one. Plus, LS swaps. :dopey:

Your mean another such utilitarian vehicle, like a tractor or combine? - i think someone has already beaten to it.

It would fit however, on a small sportscar, which isn't too powerful but entertaining.
 
Name another V8 four seater convertible? That it looks good, is now reckoned to be a reliable car when modern upgrades, it is fairly rare and drives well.

As an open top grand tourer, there aren't many cars that compete.

Sub Zero
 
Oh look, it's yet another generic wedge from 70's! Meh.
 
There were better made clown cars around when these came out! The styling is awkward and works better on other Triumph models plus the TR6 and TR7 are both more attractive and cooler. And don't get me started on that roll bar thing and frames still on the doors! Uncool.
