General description :
The Triumph TR6 is a proper British roadster. The TR6 has a supple 2.5 straight-six engine attached to a 4-speed manual gearbox with overdrive. This American sourced TR6 has only clocked up some 42,960 miles. The Karmann styled bodywork is in a good original condition with nice and correctly aligned body panels. The car was supplied from new in rare Magenta colour lacquer. It has had one re-spray in the past and is currently in a neat state. The original hood is tidy and has a flush fit. The low-mileage combined with the fact that it was always kept garaged means that it never needed a restoration. It not often that one comes across such an original TR6! The TR6 has always had very good maintenance. There is an extensive folder with paperwork and invoices and even the original owner’s manual is still present. The good maintenance record means that the engine runs sweetly together with a sure-footed gearbox. The TR6 was celebrated for its roadholding when it was introduced, thanks to independent suspension hugs the road surface really well. The fully original black leather interior trim is in excellent condition. A very well presented and maintained Triumph TR6 with a fantastic finish.

About Triumph
Triumph, a name synonymous with classic sports cars and innovative designs, has a rich and storied history in the automotive world.The Triumph story began in the late 19th century when the company originally produced bicycles and then expanded into motorcycles. However, it was in the 1920s that Triumph ventured into the production of automobiles. Over the years, Triumph became renowned for its high-quality vehicles that combined performance with style.
One of Triumph's most iconic models was the TR3, introduced in the late 1950s. It was a classic British sports car, loved for its simple yet elegant design and thrilling driving experience. The TR3 was a symbol of affordable sports car enjoyment, and it set the stage for a series of successful TR models, including the TR4, TR5, and TR6.
In addition to sports cars, Triumph made a name for itself with Michelotti-designed sedans. The Triumph Herald, introduced in the early 1960s, was a compact family car that boasted stylish design and solid engineering. Later on, the Triumph 2000 and 2500 sedans catered to a more upscale market and earned a reputation for their comfortable rides and elegant looks.
However, despite its successes, Triumph faced numerous challenges over the years, including financial difficulties and ownership changes. In the 1980s, British Leyland, the company that owned Triumph, underwent significant restructuring, and the Triumph brand was gradually phased out.
The demise of Triumph was indeed sad and, to some extent, disgraceful. The company that had produced beloved sports cars and well-regarded sedans was slowly fading away. In 1984, the last Triumph-badged car rolled off the production line, marking the end of an era.
Although the Triumph name disappeared, its legacy lives on. Enthusiasts and collectors continue to cherish classic Triumph sports cars like the TR3, TR6, and Spitfire, as well as the unique charm of Triumph sedans. Triumph remains a symbol of British automotive heritage and the enduring appeal of classic sports cars.
In conclusion, Triumph's history is a blend of classic sports car excellence and innovative sedan design. Its sad and disgraceful demise serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by many automakers over the years, but the spirit of Triumph lives on in the hearts of automotive enthusiasts around the world.
