Triumph introduced a number of new models for the 1927 season, including a two valve sports machine to replace the 'Ricardo' and a sporting version of the model P, typed the 'Q', for those seeking less glamorous transport there was a new single cylinder side valve lightweight, the W. This machine is most notable for its unusual displacement of 277cc, adopted to maximise the engine size whilst remaining in the sub 220lbs tax bracket.
This example was owned until 1983 when it passed into the hands of the vendor’s husband. During 2007 he commissioned its restoration which was completed shortly before his death in September 2007. It has therefore not been run since the restorations completion. The black and green paintwork is described as being in excellent condition and the machine is supplied with a Swansea V5.
