I'm wondering what the motivation was to plonk in the Triumph V8? I'd have thought something more modern would have been better/smaller.

Because V8 ftw! 🙌🙌🙌

I don't like the wheels and the number plates need binning but I love the Rover 200 BRM interior. I'd buy it for that rather than the V8. 

I guess it has some sort of bigger brakes which might be why it has MGF wheels but it's only a Stag engine, it's not much more powerful than a Sprint so I'd definitely be looking at going back to 13" wheels. Still would though just for that interior.
