What kind of car is a Tiger?

I was watching MTV Cribs and Patty Labelle had a car she called a "Tiger" It looked alot like an MG or Triumph TR6 very cool little car. Anyone know what the hell it is?

probably a Sunbeam Tiger...

Sunbeam Tigers were a small ENglish sportscar that got
a smallblock Ford V8 put into them, so the power is fun.
They still have old suspension component design etc,
so they aren't world-beaters nowadays, but a small package
with hefty reliable U.S. V8 power is an attractive option.

ebaker is infamous around these parts
2500 pounds with a small block Ford V8. They came stock with 164 HP, 86"wheelbase, tiny 4.5x13 wheels, and 10" solid disk brakes. Lots of potential. Easily upgradable to 350 HP.
