If you aren’t paying for the petrol it’s fine. |

3 liters aren't 6. |

You obviously don’t understand UK petrol prices. 3 litres is a big thirsty animal, especially with the C Series engine as used in that car. You’d be lucky to get 15 mpg in town. |

"The car, as I remember, was a nightmare and required a load of money spent on it. It was a horrid car, and still gives me a cold chill." Review of the car before it was "stolen", more likely pushed in the river by the owner. http://www.oldclassiccar.co.uk/austin_dip.htm |

3-litre announced Oct 67, but production delayed until Jan 68. TGX 400G above does not have front quarterlights and has hubcaps instead of full wheel covers, so is a "pre-deluxe" - 962 were built until Oct 68 revamp as Deluxe. "Revisions were: scrunchie door pockets instead of hard pockets, a larger steering wheel, cloth headlining replaced the previous vinyl, larger more comfortable seats with armrests finished in ICI Ambler replaced the leather seats, more luxurious carpets, higher final drive gearing, solid road wheels replaced the previous vented type and the chrome hubcaps were replaced by stainless steel items, front quarter lights and larger wood door cappings all gave a more upmarket feel to the car." from here - excellent 3-Litre website, well worth exploring. |
