CAR INFORMATION
More Power, More Fun – I have always loved the raw, unrefined sports car look of the TR6.
The car's performance – both acceleration and braking are more than adequate. The connection between car, driver and road are exceptional. The handling is excellent for a 70's vintage roadster. It all adds up to incredible fun. And it seems every day someone is giving a thumbs up or stopping to compliment the car's design and style. The TR6 puts a smile on the driver's face and everyone around him.
A throw back to a simpler time when car and driver were one and every mile of roading was total enjoyment. The sound of the inline six is beyond description as you blast through the curves with top down. You can do all of your own basic maintenance and most relatively inexpensive parts are still readily available and reasonably priced from various outfits – nationally and internationally.

This is an awesome, British Two Seater Convertible, that is appreciating like no other Triumph at the moment. It is very much a masculine machine, calling for beefy muscles, bold decisions, and even ruthlessness on occasion. It could be dubbed the last real sports car.
