BEST MODEL: STAG-ENGINED CARS
In this company you need cylinder, which is why Triumph waited to make a V8 before launching the Stag but by the time the XJC was finally launched, the Triumph was on its last legs thanks to that engine’s infamous reliability. Thankfully, dedicated specialists have sorted the ‘snag’ out and the car is better now than when it was new, which means a delightful GT that’s both a coupé and roadster once the hard top is removed (many owners ditch the noisy, heavy to manhandle tin lid anyway). Not particularly fast or sporting but satisfying (arguably best as an automatic – four-speed Jag XJ-S conversion works a treat) and good value.
