Maintained by an owner experienced with Triumph Spitfires
Reported to start, run, and drive very well
The Appeal
The Triumph Spitfire remains one of the most fun and accessible British sports cars of its generation. Styled by Michelotti, they're pretty little cars too, especially in a jolly colour. The later 1,500cc models brought welcome refinements while preserving the lightweight, open-top driving experience that earned the Spitfire its devoted following.
This 1973 example was purchased in 2014 as a project by its current keeper, who had owned and maintained Spitfires in earlier years and brought that hands-on knowledge to bear. The vendor describes it as a joy to own and maintain, noting that its bright colour and classic styling draw admiring glances. image.png1.6 MB
