I was a passenger in a Triumph Herald that caught on fire. This
happened in 1965 or 1966.

Right... anything from Triumph(auto) and many mg midgets, half of
Austin Healy's and Jensen Healy's later offerings as well.(All made by
the government run British Leyland group.)
Hope you got through that incident unscathed.( many came away burned,
as the fire in the TR4's usually started in the dash or firewall
wiring harness assembly.)
