This shot I took at the Mentor's place in 2012. Had it as my PC wallpaper for a bit. Little did I know that 8 years later...

Growing up, a friend of mine who lived a couple of doors down from us, his Mom had one of these. I think her's was a 1976 if I remember correctly, and she drove it 365 days a year, same colour combo as yours. We moved into that house sometime in 1980 maybe, hard to remember exactly when, but around 80 - 82 and I remember being a kid playing on the street and she'd come home from work & we'd hear that distinct exhaust note of the TR6. She had a removable hard-top for it for the winter even. I also remember it rotting out because the salt got to it, but they took it in & got it all fixed & a fresh re-spray, and it came out looking like new again... or at least it looked new again to a 12yr old  ;D

My older cousin had a TR7 at one point in his life, again I might have been 12ish when he had that, maybe even a bit younger. I only seen that one a few of times and maybe went for a ride once or twice in it.
