Tiger? My mother had one, JNG262L, complete with the Magnesium Minilites that the early cars were fitted with, and which only just survived the first winter salt..... Think later ones had Dunlop alloys instead.
I eventually bought the car, sold my Mex, and prepared the Tiger for rallying. That consisted of fitting basic safety stuff, sump guard and Goodyear knobblies! Off I went to do the local SCCON Midsummer Stages Rally. Finished just, but by the end of the event the body shell had all but fallen apart, the standard spot welds definitely man enough for the job........ Car hastily repaired and sold!
