TRIUMPH HERALD COUPÈ/CONVERTIBLE

2+2-seater coupè, 2+2-seater convertible

Pretty little cars with twin SUs, 45bhp, and 75mph, without a notable increase in thirst. Specification otherwise as saloon; front disc brakes on the last ones. Usual chassis-corrosion problems have reduced many to the role of kit-car donor, but Herald coupès were the first of the series to become coveted. Early coupès have unribbed hardtop.
