Introduced in June, 1970, the Triumph Stag was conceived as a luxury convertible sports car to rival the likes of the Mercedes-Benz SL. As such, it came with electric windows, power-assisted rack-and-pinion steering, and servo-backed front disc and rear drum brakes as standard. Neatly integrated, the substantial roll-over hoop that joined the B-pillars gained extra strength from a T-bar link to the windscreen frame. With some 145bhp and 167lb ft of torque on tap from its bespoke 2,997cc SOHC V8 engine, the model was reputedly capable of 120mph. Available with a choice of four-speed manual or three-speed automatic transmission, all but the earliest Stags benefited from both hard and soft-top roofs.
Restored in the 1990s, this Stag is finished in the original colour of Sapphire Blue over a black leather interior and was previously treated to a thorough engine refresh including skimming of the heads at a cost of over £1,400. It benefits from a desirable 4-speed manual gearbox with overdrive along with an uprated stainless-steel exhaust, uprated oil and water pumps, a new fuel tank and recent soft top (fitted in 2022). This classic Stag comes with MOT certificates dating back to 2004 as part of a significant history file and a Haynes manual.
