The Appeal
The arrival of the Triumph TR6 marked a pivotal moment in British sports car design, with Karmann's angular styling replacing Michelotti's curves to create a distinctively masculine roadster, matching the car's brawny dynamics. This 1974 example has been thoughtfully transformed from a standard TR6 into a performance-focused machine by its previous owner, who campaigned it in vintage racing events.
What sets this TR6 apart is its comprehensive suite of performance upgrades, centred around the Moss Motors supercharger installation. The car combines classic British roadster character with meaningful mechanical improvements that enhance both its performance capabilities and everyday usability. For enthusiasts seeking a TR6 with additional power and improved dynamics, this modified example offers a balance of vintage appeal and enhanced driving experience.
