Triumph Stag: £60k Spent/ 4 Speed Autobox
Designed by Michelotti as a luxury sports car the Stag was enthusiastically received when launched in 1970. The Italian styling, V8 engine/ performance and Triumph brand should have guaranteed success but a rushed implementation led to the car quickly gaining a poor reputation. Post-production solutions to this lack of development have been applied and the Stag is now recognised as a stylish classic with values rising quickly over recent years.
Originally registered during May 1977 our Stag has had just five owners from new and has recently gone through a very thorough restoration with expenditure approaching £60k
Summary of Work:

Phase 3 – Clive Tate (£4k)

The four-speed Jaguar gearbox is a major upgrade and makes this Stag a very capable/ competent Grand Tourer - add in power steering, servo assisted brakes and original Triumph V8 engine, and the car provides an utterly addictive driving experience that will put a huge smile on your face.
Ready to be used and enjoyed for extended road trips or simply a trip down to the local pub this Stag will provide lots of pleasure and many happy memories to the lucky new keepers.
