BBC Radio Solent Friday 20th

[Firept]

Alex Dyke show all week he has been on about Triumph Stags.
On Friday 20th the whole of the show apparently is dedicated to the Stag ( I am lead to believe). Its on from 10:00 to 13:00.
May be worth a listen.

Paul.

Hi Paul

The background to the show started on Monday when Alex, a confirmed car nut, said on his show he was thinking of buying a Stag. From that point on he was inundated with calls and emails advising him against this - all the usual stuff about unreliable, overheating etc. He was amazed as it got more response than any other subject he has raised this year!

Radio Solent contacted me as SOC Press Officer and asked if we could find a couple of local Stag owners to argue the case for the car.

In the end myself and Peter Brent of the Solent Area went to the studios on Friday. I was expecting the usual 3 minute interview, but it ended up as over an hour of the programme.

It was all good fun, and I think we must have won the argument, as Alex has now got his sights on a car that he wants to buy.

Let's hope he gets a good one or all the good publicity will be wasted and set the Stag cause back years................
