As a "real" Triumph owner (in your terms), I wish to make my desire to 
distance myself as far as possible from your sort of inverted-snobbery 
bullshit perfectly clear.

Frankly, I am very grateful that there are people out there with the 
time and the resources required to recreate "showroom-new" classic 
Triumphs, so that we and future generations can see how they are 
supposed to appear.   Yes, I'm quietly proud of the fact that my 
Triumphs are cars that I drive daily, and not showpieces that need to be 
trailered everywhere to avoid getting dusty, but there's room for all in 
the hobby - or if there isn't, there should be.
