Title: Barrett's #236 - Solved - Turner GT 1962
Post by: barrett on November 02, 2011, 07:42:43 AM
Another repost, this one replaces the old #236 and should be much easier.... It doesn't seem to be a repost but I'm very surprised we've not seen it here before. What is it and when was it built, please.

Well done.
A really pretty and sadly forgotten design

Actually Otto that's not a Turner GT, that's a Turner Mk2.

barrett's puzzle shows the GT, Turner's attempt to move upmarket and into the 1960s.

It was the only Turner to get that moniker, and only 9 (not 10, I believe) were made between 1962 and 1965, so you could say it was not entirely successful...

Here are a few more pics of the Turner GT:
