[FreeskierSean]

what did you do to the engine to get it to sound like that and have that much power

[fujioko]

your driving on the wrong side of the road! Nice video!

[faysinclair19]

I have driven my 1972 triumph Spirfire for the last 20 years, i drive tt everyday to work

and before that my Mum drove it for 12 years and for the first 4 year of its life Lady Macintosh owned it,I love the car and i can't bear thought of driving something else.

[quickable]

My dad, years ago took me out in a Triumph Spitfire. Handbrake turns and doughnuts and everything. I've loved it since I heard the name. I can still smell the burn rubber!

What are they like to own?

[staticfire91]

Wow I was considering getting a spitfire when i pass my test but now i'm 100% sure i want one!! Any advice for someone thinking of buying one?

[hogalog]

id like too see you get insured like.... im 24and have 4 years no claims. been driving since i was 17...... they still want 500 quid if i got a spit.

[bulljacobet]

Ive just passed and on a 1500 spit i had to pay 1800 :(

[markiex]

you're going so fast the air pressure is pushing your wipers across the windscreen :-)

[spitfire2002]

was that redlining?

[davesideways]

At that time 7K. Was later 7800 on newer engine.

[spitfire2002]

thats alot of RPM for a 4 cylinder.

[JD0x0]

4 cylinders usually would have higher rpm than larger engines

[spitfire2002]

i guess

[jaybeetee]

dude nice car, drivin on the left though seemed like the opposing traffic was gonna hit you lol

[pfspeeddemon]

Great sounding Spit, Mate ! Check out mine, if you like, by searching YouTube for the video "Malteser's Triumph Spitfire Mk3"

[Henry130766]

Done some cycle racing over that hill! Britsh camp yeah? Lot faster in a spitfire though! lol..Cool vid!

[davesideways]

Yes Camp is just where the video ends, the cafe and pub. Also cycled up there quite a few times, steep!

[davesideways]

My tie-rods are custom made from cold drawn steel and with 10000lbs rose joints each end :)

Never had a failure on the suspension in 10years of hooning spitfires :)

They are pretty strong, the main weakness is in the drivers head! Get out there and hoon it!

[ukejim999]

Dude, I was scared to take my spitty to the local shop without a tierod breaking. If you stop posting, then we can assume that the tierod finally broke when you were hooning around one of the corners.

[tezzabhoy]

your fucking mental in that thing!! i love it i wanna buy one of those is it worth it?? keep on cruising

[aircooledTOM]

you have giant balls... I'm very impressed.

[davesideways]
