1972 Triumph Stag V8
HIGHLIGHTS
- 3.0 litre V8 with 3 speed automatic gearbox

THE APPEAL
The Triumph Stag has long been the go to V8 cruiser for classic car enthusiasts. The British 2+2 luxury sports car was launched in 1970 and was styled by Giovanni Michelotti. The Italian styling, which was utilised across the Triumph model range at the time, was a shrewd move. The Stag’s V8 engine was the icing on the cake however, which makes it a desirable and popular classic today. The 1972 Triumph Stag on sale with Car and Classic is a Mk1 example finished in classic Pimento red and has benefited from mechanical maintenance in the current owners custodianship.
THE HISTORY AND PAPERWORK
- MOT until 8th November 2022

This Triumph Stag was first registered in March 1972 and was acquired by the current owner in 2001. It has had 5 owners from new.
Included in the history file are numerous invoices which document ongoing maintenance over the years. This includes a number of invoices for works carried out by Triumph specialists Faversham Classics Ltd in Kent.
Also included in the history file are some old MOT certificates, with the earliest dating back to 1998.

THE INTERIOR

THE EXTERIOR

The Stags red paint presents nice and bright in the photos and is set off nicely by the classic Stag black insert alloy wheels, which appear to be in nice shape.
The seller states that the exterior is mostly good with some blemishes noticeable on closer inspection. There are some minor small rust bubbles approximately 10mm x 50mm in size, with minor cracking to paint about the size of a 50p piece in 3 areas.

The fabric convertible top appears to be in good shape as does the rear screen which looks to be nice and clear.
