This Triumph is undoubtedly one of the finest TR6 examples available in one of the best colours. Mechanically it is fully sorted and ready for the open road. Top down enjoyment awaiting the British car enthusiast, both seasoned and neophyte.

The TR6 was the best selling, most prolific sports car that Triumph ever produced and this example, being a 1976 model year, represents the last year of production for this iconic car. It is almost certainly, also the best of the years Triumph offered it.
This gorgeous convertible has been treated to a show winning and total restoration. Finished in one of the most desirable colours offered by Triumph, French Blue, it appears resplendent with its laser straight body and impeccable paint. At the time of restoration, which was approximately just 5000 miles ago, the mechanics were fully rebuilt, refurbished and serviced including total engine as well as transmission and rearend. All brake, suspension, fuel, cooling and electrical systems have been gone through. Equipped with the desirable four speed manual transmission and functioning factory electric overdrive. It utilizes the period favoured Minilite style mag wheels for a great look and they are in excellent condition. New Toyo performance rated black wall tires complete the rolling stock.
It is also fitted with a new and correct black convertible top and fine fitting top boot. The interior has been upgraded with later model bucket seats in the interest of safety, confort and style. An Alpine stereo with CD player and mp3 capability updates the sound system without altering the cars stock appearance.
