Hi and welcome from Blackpool. I'm glad I'm not 21 again as i don't think I could stand to be driving a Triumph 2.5pi again. You must tell us what the hard top is like and where it came from?

Welcome to the forum, I had a 3.0 Triumph Stag at your age..loved it :)
That is one very well protected parking bay, by the way, just looks bloody tight to get in and out of.
Put some more photos up when you get a chance :thumbsup:

I had a Rover P6 3500S when I was 21 - it felt like a rocket then, but wouldn't now!

OP, as your car still has run-flat tyres on it you could try replacing them with non-runflats before you start looking at different wheel sizes - especially as your 107 alloys look so good!

If you do look at changing wheels too, with a 3.0i I don't think you can go smaller than 17 inch because of the front brakes.

700 miles in a week seems a lot for a weekend car BTW - maybe your daily is getting rested!

I've not removed a CDV, (I had it done :roll: ) but I believe it's just a case of disconnecting the hose from the CDV, unscrewing the CDV then putting the hose straight into where the CDV was.
