Description
With less than 5, 000 kilometers and only two private owners, this Triumph Spitfire 1500 TC is an absolute rarity—or, as the Brits would say, “rare as hen’s teeth.” Only two private owners have cherished this Spitfire, resulting in the car being in exceptionally neat condition. Finished in the iconic Inca Yellow, this Spitfire is not only a pleasure to look at, but also sports a typical color from that era. This example comes with a matching hardtop and features a manual gearbox with overdrive, providing extra comfort while driving.
In very neat condition
The condition of this Triumph is simply impressive, given its age. Everything about this Spitfire looks fresh, neat, and well-cared-for. The sleek bodywork shows minor signs of use, which is exceptional for a car that’s over 45 years old. The wheels, windows, and chrome parts, such as the bumpers, all look beautiful and confirm that this is a minimally used example. The paint, finished in Inca Yellow, enhances the timeless elegance of this English sports car and draws attention without being extravagant.
The well-maintained state continues in the interior. The upholstery is in great condition, the steering wheel shows hardly any signs of use, and the carpets look as if they’re just four years old. Everything exudes authenticity and low mileage, from the seats to the dashboard. Under the hood, the story remains the same: everything is exceptionally fresh and well-maintained, making it immediately clear that this Spitfire has hardly accumulated any miles.
Drives great
The 1, 500cc four-cylinder engine, known for its reliability and sporty character, starts smoothly, feels lively, and offers good performance. The overdrive ensures that the car is comfortable over long distances. The handling is truly excellent, contributing to the iconic feeling of driving a British sports car from the ’70s.
The original documentation is included
This Triumph comes with extensive documentation, including the original owner’s manual and various workshop manuals. Everything about this Spitfire exudes attention to detail, and it’s clear that it has always been well cared for.
An iconic British sports car
Introduced in 1975, the Triumph Spitfire 1500 was the last evolution of the popular model that originated in the 1960s. The 1, 493-cc four-cylinder engine produced 71 hp and effortlessly reached a top speed of 160 km/ h. The combination of a synchro mesh gearbox and optional overdrive made this Spitfire both fast and comfortable. The great handling and timeless design still make this car beloved among collectors and enthusiasts worldwide.
