) it sounded fantastic & we used to laugh when we got some spotty kids pulling up next to us at the lights with their big bore exhausts, I just reved mine a few times & their faces dropped due to the sound & that the motor would rock nicely every time you stamped on the throttle

I used to own a Triumph Stag in the 80's, that is one glorious sound track of an engine...once sorted as most are these days

I had a custom stainless steel exhaust made for mine with catalytic converters removed which gave a real performance improvement and sounded like a TVR on steroids

.

I know we shouldn't like them but I do have a soft spot for the classic v8 range rovers.
