The Attractions
The TR6 was the last in a series of very special British sports cars that adopted large-capacity engines with high torque for an easy and engaging driving experience. Karmann updated the design, but the classic lines created by Michelotti are still clearly visible.
The European models were equipped with a fuel-injected version of Triumph's powerful and elastic 2.5-litre six-cylinder engine with 150 hp. This stunning white '71 TR6 spent its entire life in Italy where it was visibly kept with great care and benefited from the warm, dry climate, as is evident from its condition.
It has been partially restored but has great originality and a unique character that will attract the attention of enthusiasts. Important details such as the excellent alignment of the doors and the tidy engine compartment confirm that this is a TR6 in really good condition. It looks like it's ready to go and provide lots of fun.
