Does anyone else remember how sexy the little 1967 Sunbeam Alpine was? I remember it from the James Bond flick "Dr No" and was instantly hooked. If only I had 50K laying around for one...

My dad had several, from 1961 to 1967 models. Great cars, lots of character, much rarer than an MG and more affordable too. I still remember how they smelled and how they sounded.

Neighbor / Friend collects Sunbeam Tigers...

They do sound sweet. Seem to be very popular in NZ! (as is most USA Muscle) Many sheep farmers have a couple $50k 'USA' collector muscle cars stashed in the shed.
