^^ go for it! Buy one now. Or a Dolomite Sprint, always fancied one myself.
Like the triumph ,
I had a 2500 estate auto , adored the thing , dad also had one with the manual overdrive switch
Then I had a 1850 then sprint , interior was really nice with the plush seats and dashboard
Always heard the injection pumps on the Pi can give grief
Also better keep away from ebay

1850 & Sprint, nice!
I've had this car 31 years, the mechanical injection system is not all that bad. It's what started my interest in fuel injection. It just got a bad rep when it was new, because the garages didn't understand it.Richard
