1972 Triumph GT6

Highlights

  • Thousands of pounds invested with a full pictorial record
  • Full respray in Vermillion, with rechromed bumpers and external door handles
  • Excellent condition chrome minilite deep dish wheels accented with custom made GT6 branded centre caps
  • Extensive mechanical refurbishment
  • A great drive producing a superb sound
  • MOT & Tax exempt - Advisory-free MOT until 20th of March 2025 for peace of mind

The Appeal

An evolution of the legendary Triumph Spitfire, the GT6 was a svelte, stylish and slinky little roadster that owed much of its legendary lines to Giovanni Micholetti. It was differentiated by its bigger, 2.0-litre straight six engine, which set its performance very much alight and led to a far more muscular, capable car.

This excellent example has had plenty of money pumped into it, ranging from sympathetic upgrades to a comprehensive refurbishment. It's a freshly-finished example that defies its years, having been subject to a full spray, replenished chromework and even custom GT6-centred wheels.

Factor in a highly extensive programme of mechanical work, and you've got a GT6 that performs better than it did from factory - a capable, drivable classic that's capable of keeping pace on the road as equally as it is keeping attention at your local car show. This is an opportunity you shouldn't miss!
