The Attractions
When the TR6 was unveiled to the public, the trade journalists of the day called it 'the last true sports car' and in many ways they were not wrong. At the time of its launch in 1969, no other car offered as much value for money and, in a market that was beginning to show signs of disaffection with classic British sports discoveries, it proudly and boldly continued the more traditional Triumph formula, albeit with a few updates and concessions to modernity. Today, its sharp, unmistakable lines still make it highly valued and sought after by enthusiasts.
This is a specimen of great character, which is in excellent condition with its original engine, ASI certification and its original booklets and manuals. It still has its original Rome plates and is ready to go. It represents the perfect opportunity to experience the unique appeal of a classic British sports car, one of the most enjoyable, fun and engaging driving experiences ever.
