The Appeal
The Triumph Herald benefited from beautiful styling thanks to Giovanni Michelotti. Originally released with a 948cc engine, Triumph would go on to offer the 1200cc engine as well as a convertible model. The convertible, still possessing the same beauty whilst also offering a more exhilarating driving experience, helped boost sales for Triumph.
Its popularity was reflected in the Herald being produced for some 12 years and thereafter giving the chassis and running gear platform for its successor, the Spitfire.

The Mechanics
- Current owner has recently replaced front lower wishbones, bushes, springs and dampers
- Radial tyres all around with good tread
- Smooth running engine absent of any knocking or bangs
- Upgraded starter motor by previous owner
This vehicle starts and runs as should. The 1200 engine gives a lovely raspy note, thanks in part to a new exhaust backbox being fitted recently.
There is no knocking, banging or smoke coming from the engine. It accelerates and stops as it should, well and in a straight line. The current owner informs us that he completed a recent journey from London to Brecon Beacons, Wales with no issues.
The engine bay is tidy and in fair condition, with a recently replaced oil filter. The underside is in good condition and also included in the sale is a full-sized spare wheel, located in the boot.

Summary
The Herald 1200 Convertible offers owners not only stunning looks but also a pure, exposed driving experience. The convertible model gives great visibility thanks to the large glass area and option to retract the convertible hood. This example is in fair to good condition overall, boasting a smooth running 1147cc engine and a gorgeous colour combination.
This Herald will be sure to put a smile on the drivers face whilst also catching the eyes of onlookers. This is a fine opportunity to offer an honest classic convertible with a thoughtful specification to match.

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
- Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
- Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
-
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
| Ammontare dell'offerta | Incremento |
|---|---|
| Da £0 a £9,999 | £100.00 |
| Da £10,000 a £49,999 | £250.00 |
| Da £50,000 a £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
