Original Purchase Receipts
Hi all,
When looking through this month's issue of the SIXappeal magazine, I noticed that there were a few images of people's original purchase receipts for their cars. I'm wondering if anyone else has these and would like to share them to compare prices of the cars, optional extras etc. Just think it would be interesting to see
Here's mine:

Re: Original Purchase Receipts
Interesting one, I'll have to see what my "archives" reveal. I know I probably have only a couple with original paperwork.v8sam wrote: ↑Sun Feb 02, 2020 9:40 amHi all,

Re: Original Purchase Receipts
I am always pleased Triumph Car Dealer elated material. I have found this Clarence Engineering Co Ltd of Belfast tax DiscHolder image in my collection.
Re: Original Purchase Receipts
Clark Motors in Rochdale was where I first saw a PI as a teenager which I tried in vain to talk my father into buying one....at least I came out with something all those years ago!
M & I Motors on Church St, Burnley was the supplying dealership of my Gunmetal Mk1 2000.
Stanbourne Motors of Bournemouth were the supplying dealership of my now (somewhat sadly) sold Triumph Stag.
Arnold G Wilson of Trafalgar St, Burnley were one of three (!!) Triumph dealerships in the town at the same time. Fierce competition there! Just an old tax disc holder I have in my collection.

Re: Original Purchase Receipts
A few duplicate attachments there - but it's first time I've actually managed to upload photos on here, so that's an achievement in itself for me being a bit of a technophobe...

Re: Original Purchase Receipts
The original tax disc holder from my 1973 2.5PI.
Supplied by Reliance Garage in Glossop, who were authorised Triumph dealers, but strangely didn't have the Triumph logo on on the holder. The car still has its dealer sticker in the rear window which also doesn't have the Triumph logo. They are listed in the Triumph Sales and Service booklet however.

Re: Original Purchase Receipts
Dutton Forshaw on Corporation Street, Preston were the suppliers of an 'R' reg Triumph 2500S that I bought back in the late 1990's for breaking. This was the paper document wallet that came with the car depicting their logo.

Re: Original Purchase Receipts
I assume you good people are familiar with the work of Steve Weblin (Vitesse Steve) who is gradually cataloguing triumph dealers and their stationery. The Preston site has a few ditties on there:

Re: Original Purchase Receipts
Steve posted a reply in this topic (3rd reply) with a picture of a Triumph dealer tax disc, which
then prompted me to dig mine out!

Re: Original Purchase Receipts
I would like a photo of your rear window sticker, when you can, to add to my collection. I was pleased to see that the firm (RelianceGarage(Glossop)Ltd) is still trading at the same address.johnnydog wrote: ↑Mon Feb 10, 2020 1:09 pmThe original tax disc holder from my 1973 2.5PI.
