E hoʻāʻo i ka MGC a me Triumph TR250: ʻeono mau kaʻa

ʻElua mau alanui alanui Pelekane no ka leʻaleʻa i ke kūlohelohe

ʻO ka poʻe makemake i kahi alanui alanui Pelekane kaulike me ka laina laina ʻeono i ka makahiki 1968 i loaʻa ka mea a lākou e ʻimi nei. ʻO MG a me Triumph. Kaulana no kā lākou mau kuʻuna, nā inoa kokoke i ka manawa like e hōʻike i ka MGC a keu hoʻi no ka mākeke ʻAmelika ʻo Triumph TR250. ʻO wai o nā kaʻa ʻelua i pīhoihoi?

E ke Akua, he kaʻa! Hoʻopili paʻa ʻia ka ʻāpana ʻeono-cylinder nui ma waena o ka peʻahi hoʻoluʻu a me ka paia kaʻa i paʻakikī ke hoʻokomo i kahi wīwī 7/16 maʻalahi ma kēlā me kēia ʻaoʻao. Aia ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻelua mau pahu kaʻa SU paʻa i loaʻa i kekahi mai ka Jaguar XK 150. I mea e pani pono ai i ka puʻupuʻu ma luna o ka mīkini MGC, ua hāʻawi ʻia i kahi ākea ākea, e hoʻomanaʻo ana i ka pōʻai umauma o Arnold Schwarzenegger i ke kiʻiʻoniʻoni Conan. ka Barbarian. No laila ʻaʻohe kānalua: ʻo MGC kahi mīkini ʻaila maoli.

Ma hope o ke kumu hoʻohālike ʻAmelika, hoʻololi ʻo MG i ka ʻenekini 147-lita ʻeono-cylinder me 3 hp, i hoʻomohala ʻia no ka sedan Austin 920-Liter, i loko o kahi liʻiliʻi, i ka hoʻomaka ʻana he 1,8 kg MGB wale nō. ʻO ka hopena, ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia me ka 51-lita ʻehā-cylinder version, hoʻonui ʻia ka mana e 200 hp. - ʻo ia hoʻi, ʻoi aku ma mua o ka pālua. A no ka manawa mua, ua haki ka hana MG i ka mile 5 km / h. Manaʻo ʻo MG i ka hoʻonui nui ʻana o ka mana e pono ai no nā kumu ʻelua: ʻo ka mea mua, kokoke like me kēia, hoʻomaka ka mea hoʻokūkū nui ʻo Triumph i ka TR2,5 PI me kahi 152-lita. eono-paukū engine me XNUMX hp Me. ʻO ka lua, ke manaʻolana nei ʻo MG e hiki ke hāʻawi i kahi mea hoʻololi no Austin-Healey i hoʻopau ʻia.

Pehea ka hou o MGC?

ʻO ka makemake o MG e ʻumeʻume i nā mea kūʻai aku mua o Healy me MGC e wehewehe paha i ka inoa grandiose iki, a ma hope o ka hoʻohiki ʻana a ka poʻe a me MGB i kahi kaʻa hou loa. Manaʻo ʻo nā mea kālepa MG ke kāhea lākou iā ia ʻo MGB ʻeono a MGB 3000 paha, e ʻike koke ʻia ke kokoke i kahi kiʻi ʻehā-ʻoloka liʻiliʻi a kumukūʻai hoʻi. Eia nō naʻe, e hoʻokaʻawale ʻo MGC mai MGB (kahi e hana nei), e hōʻailona ana he ʻokoʻa loa, hāʻawi ʻia kahi mea hoʻolele haʻuki.

Hoʻokahi ʻaoʻao a i ʻole, ua loli maoli ka nui ma lalo o ka puʻupuʻu - ʻaʻole wale ka engine hou loa, akā ʻo ka hoʻokuʻu mua ʻana. Pono e hoʻololi ʻia ke poʻo nui o ke kino, nā paia ʻaoʻao a me ka metala mua i kūpono i ka monster 270kg ʻeono pahu i loko o ke kaʻa ʻenekini o ka mīkini paʻa, ʻoi aku ma mua o ʻehā mika ka lōʻihi o MGB. Eia naʻe, ma muli o ka hopena, ua hoʻonui ʻia ke kaomi ma ke axle mua ma kahi o 150 kg. Manaʻo ʻoe i ke kaʻa ʻana?

ʻO ka mea liʻiliʻi ʻaʻole hauʻoli loa nā mea hoʻoponopono o ka makasina Pelekane Autocar i Nowemapa 1967 ke hoʻokau lākou i ka MGC i kahi hōʻike. ʻO ka mea mua, ʻo ke hoʻokele, ʻoiai ka hoʻoili ʻole ʻana, loaʻa kahi maʻi paʻakikī i ka manawa o nā kaʻa kaʻa kaʻa. Hoʻohui ʻia me ke kaupaona i hoʻohui ʻia ma ke koʻi o mua ma muli o ka MGC ma lalo, ua nele ia i ka "māmā o kahi MGB a i ʻole Austin-Healey". Panina: "ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi o ka neʻe ʻana ma nā alaloa nui ma mua o nā alanui kuiki."

Akā kēia manawa no kā mākou. ʻO ka mea pōmaikaʻi, ʻo ka mea kūʻai kaʻa maʻamau ʻo Holger Bockenmühl i hāʻawi iā mākou i kahi MGC ʻulaʻula no ka holo. ʻO ka lumi Bockenmühl me nā hiʻohiʻona hiʻohiʻona hoihoi aia ma hope pono o ka Motorworld complex ma Boeblingen, kahi e kūʻai aku ai kēia MG (www.bockemuehl-classic-cars.de). Ma laila mākou e manaʻo ai iā Frank Elseser a me kāna Triumph TR250, ka mea a mākou i kono ai no kēia hoʻohālikelike alanui. Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia nā hoʻololi ʻelua i 1968.

ʻO ka TR250 ka mana ʻAmelika o ka TR5 PI a loaʻa iā ia nā carburetors Stromberg ʻelua ma kahi o kahi ʻōnaehana injection petrol. ʻO ka mana o ka 2,5-lita eono-cylinder engine he 104 hp. - Akā, ʻoi aku ka paona o ka Triumph i hoʻokahi haneli kilokani ma mua o ka ʻelele MG. ʻOi aku ka naʻauao ma mua o ʻelua mau alanui? A i ʻole ka 43 hp i nalowale. leʻaleʻa hoʻokele pohihihi?

ʻO ka mea mua, pono e hoʻomaopopo ʻia ua hana ka MGC ʻulaʻula i kekahi mau hoʻololi a he mau hoʻohui hoihoi: nā kukui a me nā kaohi hou aʻe, luna alakaʻi, nā noho me nā kāʻei hope, kahi huila hoʻokele mana i hoʻouka hou ʻia, 185/70 HR 15 mau wili, nā ʻauamo a me nā kāʻei. ma ke ʻano he kōkua koho. E like me ka maʻamau me ka MGB kumu, ʻae nā puka lōʻihi i kahi holo ʻoluʻolu i ka hoʻololi haʻahaʻa. Maʻaneʻi ʻoe e kū pololei a haka pono i nā hāmeʻa Smiths liʻiliʻi akā maʻalahi e heluhelu me nā helu stern a me nā helu angular e hāʻawi i ka wikiwiki i ka wikiwiki o 140 mph (225 km / h).

He ʻeleʻele ʻeleʻele i uhi ʻia me ka uhi mānoanoa i mua o ka mea kaʻa ma ka ʻaoʻao o ka mea hoʻokele a me kahi papa hana pale i mua pono o ka mea e noho ana ma ka huila, ua hoʻokomo ʻia ʻelua mau mana hoʻomehana rotary ʻano pōpō a me kahi peʻahi. Ma kahi mahana ma kahi o ʻewalu degere ma waho, e hoʻonoho mākou i nā waiwai kiʻekiʻe ʻelua. Akā ʻo ka mea mua, pono e hoʻomaʻamaʻa maikaʻi ka ʻenekini ʻeono-cylinder me kahi neʻe nui. He 10,5 lita o ka wai i loko o ka ʻōnaehana hoʻoluʻu, no laila e lōʻihi ka manawa. Akā ʻoluʻolu loa - ʻoiai ma lalo o 2000 rpm, hoʻonui mākou me ka pahu pahu pahu ʻehā-wikiwiki, a ʻo nā mea ikaika ʻeono e hoʻolalelale i ka māmā māmā mai nā revs haʻahaʻa.

Inā makemake mākou e hopu i kekahi me kahi kaʻa wela, e pāpālua mākou i ka wikiwiki o ka neʻe ʻana i kahi kiʻekiʻe o 4000 - a ʻoi aku ia ma mua o ka lawa. Inā makemake ka MGB haʻahaʻa e hui pū me mākou, ʻo kona ʻenekini ʻehā-cylinder hilinaʻi pinepine, e like me ka moʻolelo jazz ʻo Dizzy Gillespie, e hoʻohūhū i kona mau papalina. ʻO kēlā PTO makemake nui loa i ka MGC aneane like me ka Jaguar E-Type - ʻoiai ma nā kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe, ua hoʻokuʻu ka ʻeono-cylinder o Austin i kāna paʻa a holo iki. ʻAʻole i ʻike ʻia ka puʻupuʻu o ka MGC i ʻōlelo ʻia e nā mea hōʻike mua i ka wā e hoʻohuli ai i ka huila a i ʻole nā ​​kihi paʻa, mahalo paha i ka hoʻokele uila a me nā kaila 185 ākea.

ʻO ka hoʻololi pololei mai MGC a TR250 e like me kahi huakaʻi i ka manawa i kahi mīkini manawa. ʻO ke kino o ka TR250, ka mea ʻokoʻa iki mai ka TR1961 i hoʻolauna ʻia i ka makahiki 4, ʻelima kenimika ka liʻiliʻi o ka kino ma mua o ke kino MGB, akā like ka lōʻihi. Eia naʻe, ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ka hakahaka ma hope o ka hoʻokele iki. Eia ka mea maikaʻi i ka neʻe ʻana i lalo me ka guru, hiki iā ʻoe ke kau i kou lima ma ka lihi luna o ka puka. Ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē, hoʻopau ka Triumph i kāna pailaka me nā kaohi nui aʻe, ʻoiai e kūkulu ʻia ana i ka papa lāʻau nani, nele i nā kūpeʻe chrome.

ʻO ka ʻenekini 2,5-lita ʻeono-cylinder, ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ka nānā ʻana, mahalo nui ʻia ma luna o nā mea āpau me kāna hana silky, mālie a maʻalahi. Me ka lōʻihi o ka hahau ʻana o 95 millimeters, ʻo ke ono o ka Triumph ma kahi o ʻeono millimeters i ʻoi aku ka nui o ka MGC Austin. ʻO ka hopena, ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ka pahu o Triumph ma mua o ka holoholona MG - a ʻoi aku ka lahilahi o ka TR250 e holo ana ʻeono pistons.

Me kahi huakaʻi lole leʻaleʻa ʻoi aku ka māmā, ka māmā o ke kaʻa a me ka holo hohonu ʻana, hāʻawi ka Triumph i kahi holo haʻuki ma mua o ka MGC. Maʻaneʻi manaʻo ʻoe e like me ka roadster maoli, nāna e hana me kāna mea kalaiwa i kahi mea aloha ma mua o ka MGC mahalo nui me kāna ʻenekini ikaika. Ma nā ala hele i mākaukau maikaʻi ʻole ʻia, ʻaʻole e huki ʻia ka MG ikaika mai ka Triumph nani, akā ma nā ala kuiki me nā piʻo, hiki iā ʻoe ke kali i kahi hopena make kahi e maloʻo ai nā lima o ka mea hoʻokele Triumph.

ʻOiai kēia mau ʻokoʻa, ʻokoʻa nā hiʻohiʻona ʻelua - ʻaʻohe o lākou kūleʻa pāʻoihana, ʻoiai, ʻaʻole i hoʻolālā ʻo Triumph. Ua ukali ʻia ka TR5 PI a me kāna ʻano ʻAmelika TR250 i ʻelua mau makahiki ma hope o ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka TR6 me kahi kino hou loa. ʻO ka loaʻa ʻana o ka TR5 a me TR6 i ʻelua mau mana ʻokoʻa ma muli o nā hoʻoponopono hoʻokuʻu ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī ma United States. Manaʻo nā connoisseurs Triumph, e like me ka mea kākau puke inoa ʻo Bill Pigot, ua makemake ka hui e hoʻopakele i nā mea kūʻai aku ma US mai nā ʻōnaehana hoʻāʻo a paʻakikī hoʻi e mālama ʻia o ka hoʻohālike PI (Petrol Injection).

Ua hana ʻia ka MGC no ʻelua mau makahiki wale nō (1967-1969) a ʻaʻole i kokoke i ke kūʻai kūleʻa o ka Austin-Healey kaao. ʻO nā alanui ʻelua, ʻoiai ko lākou ʻano ʻoiaʻiʻo maoli, he mau hōʻailona o ka emi ʻana o ka ʻoihana kaʻa Pelekane. ʻO kā lākou manawa hana i hui pū me ka hoʻokumu ʻana o British Leyland i ka makahiki 1968, kahi pōʻino ʻoihana nui ma luna o nā hōʻailona, ​​​​nā kuleana a me nā hoʻolālā.

Lunahooponopono Franc-Peter Hudek: Hāʻawi ka MGC a me Triumph TR250 i ka mana maikaʻi mai nā haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa o kā lākou mau mīkini ʻeono-cylinder vintage e hoʻāʻo a hoʻāʻo i ka ʻenehana maʻalahi a me ka leʻaleʻa hoʻokele waho. Eia nō naʻe, ʻo ka pōʻino o ka mismarketing me nā mea liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi i hana ʻia e hoʻohuli iā lākou i underdogs i hoʻopaʻa inoa ʻia ma ke ʻano maʻalahi - he waiwai no nā connoisseurs ʻoiaʻiʻo.

ʻO British Leyland a me ka hoʻomaka o ka hopena

ʻO FOUNDATION ʻO British Leyland ma 1968 ka hopena o kahi nalu lōʻihi o nā merger no nā mea hana kaʻa Pelekane. ʻO ka hoʻohui ʻana ma kahi o 20 mau mīkini kaʻa e manaʻo ʻia e hoʻomaʻalahi i ka hana ʻana e ka laulima ʻana a me ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā ʻāpana like e like me ka hiki, ʻoiai e kōkua ana e hana i nā mana hou. ʻO nā māka nui loa ʻo Austin, Daimler, MG, Morris, Jaguar, Rover a me Triumph. ʻO ka inoa ʻo Leyland mai kahi mea hana kalaka i loaʻa iā Standard-Triumph ma 1961 a me Rover ma 1967.

Eia naʻe, ua pau ka hui nui i fiasco. He ākea a paʻakikī ka pilikia. Ma waho aʻe o ka loaʻa ʻana o nā māhele he nui i kona wā mua, aia ʻo British Leyland ma mua o 40 mau hale kaʻa i hoʻolaha ʻia ma waena o Central England. ʻO nā hoʻopaʻapaʻa ma waena o ka hoʻokele, nā kuhi hewa nui a me ka maikaʻi ʻole o ka huahana - ʻo kekahi hapa ma muli o ka hahau ʻana ma hope o ka pani ʻana o nā hale hana - alakaʻi i ka emi wikiwiki o ka hui ʻoihana. I ka pau ʻana o ka makahiki 1974, aia ka hopohopo ma ke ʻano o ka banekorupa. Ma hope o ka nationalization i nā makahiki 80, ua ʻāpana.

I loko o ka hale hōʻikeʻike, hōʻike mākou i ʻehā mau hiʻohiʻona Pelekania Leyland ma ke ʻano he laʻana o nā kulekele hoʻohālikelike kūpono ʻole, nā ʻenehana kahiko a me nā kuhi hewa e pili ana i ka mākeke kūwaho.
