All the Tiger owners talked about how fast they were and how hot the footwells got. I can only imagine on both counts.
Don't wish to digress from the theme of your thread; but couldn't let that remark go by without commenting on it:
A good friend of mine has a Sunbeam Tiger, I've been in it several times, but Ian has never allowed me to drive it. (Perhaps he doesn't trust me? I wonder why!)
I can vouch for the fact that they go like a scalded cat, and stick to the road like dogs**t to your shoe.
A real 'fun' car!
They're almost as much fun as the Cobra!
(...and Ian has never driven that!)
