The Appeal 

Synonymous with two seater sports cars, Triumph dominated the market and produced some truly wonderful and beautiful sports cars. The GT6 was produced from 1966-73 in its three various editions, with the MK3 being the final edition. This spectacular example has been beautifully restored and boasts top-drawer workmanship, resulting in a gorgeous shine on the outside and a well put together, comfortable interior. 

The History and Paperwork 

  • V5 boasting just 2 previous keepers 
  • Current keeper acquired the car approximately 30 years ago 
  • Extensive paperwork backing up maintenance by the vendor 
  • Selection of original Triumph booklets 
  • Genuine mileage - MOT exempt but has test certificate to July 2023

The Interior 

  • Exceptional condition and beautifully trimmed with white piping which may need a touch up in certain areas 
  • Very clean throughout, evidently well loved and cherished 
  • Presented with lovely wood trim dashboard, nice clear dials with nothing apparently missing or damaged that we saw 
  • Vendor has evidently endeavoured to keep everything as original and correct as possible giving a true classic feel and presence

The Exterior 

  • Stunning and glossy Pimento red paintwork, finished to a high standard all the way down to the sills 
  • Vendor has kept true to the cars originality, with perfect attention to detail all round with the lesser used but very attractive steel wheels 
  • Very high gloss and exceptionally clean throughout, evidence of it being dry stored and not used in poor conditions with superbly clean door shuts and engine bay all round - Stainless and chrome all over in top order with a superb shine and with next to no marks 

The Mechanics 

  • 2.0 Litre in-line 6 cylinder petrol, neatly painted and tended to 
  • Original and very clean engine bay with no immediate evidence of any leaks or otherwise, having evidently been fastidiously maintained 
  • Very tidy with evidence of many new or recent parts 
  • Engine bay clean and very well presented 
  • No expense spared in upkeep 
  • Chassis, wheels and suspension parts have all been powder coated

Summary 

A very attractive car with flowing lines, a luxurious interior and a torquey 6 cylinder engine, this is a very imposing car and sure to turn heads. Extremely comfortable and fun to drive, this is sure to get you to where you are going with the highest level of comfort and style. Exceptionally well maintained, this is a brilliant example and not to be missed.
