TRIUMPH for sale

The Spitfire remained in Triumph’s lineup for eighteen years, from 1962 to 1980. Elegantly designed by Michelotti, the car still appeals today thanks to its mechanical simplicity and ease of use.

Unveiled in 1955, the TR3 was directly derived from the TR2, from which it inherited all its mechanical components. An archetype of the British roadster, equipped with a simple and robust four-cylinder engine, the car enjoyed great success.

In 1961, the TR4 was introduced with an entirely new body designed by Italian coachbuilder Michelotti. In 1965, the model evolved into the TR4 A IRS (for Independent Rear Suspension), featuring independent rear wheels.

In the summer of 1967, the TR4 was transformed into the TR5, which was equipped with a 150-horsepower inline-six engine. The TR5 had a short production run; the last unit rolled off the line in September 1968.

The TR6 was introduced in 1968 as a major redesign of the TR5, entrusted to German coachbuilder Karmann. A major commercial success for Triumph, the TR6 sold over 90,000 units before production ended in 1976.
