---There is no such thing as "good mechanical condition" in a Spitfire. It's just a temporary state.
One can only assume that your experience with Spitfires has been less than satisfactory, eh John?!?!?
But I have to ask.. was your goal restoration or just transportation? Do you feel the same about all the Triumph line of autos, or just the Spit? I'm not looking at doing a restore, just something to drive in and around town. Was originally looking at the spitfire due to it's costs around here.. initial purchase and a 'parts' car could be had for a few thousand total for both, and replacement parts seem to be readily available from multiple sources. Seems I might be able to do the same with a TR6 or perhaps a GT6.. good thing I'm in no hurry. And thanks for the BMW suggestion, but I absolutely hate those things for no real rational reason
Cheers,
Brad
