MOT: Exempt
Introduced in 1968 as a replacement for the outgoing TR250/TR5 models, the Triumph TR6 proved a strong seller on both sides of the Atlantic. Crisply styled, its smooth flowing lines and Kamm tail hid a cruciform-braced chassis equipped with all-round independent suspension, disc/drum brakes and rack-and-pinion steering. Powered by a refined 2498cc OHV straight-six engine allied to four-speed plus overdrive manual transmission, it was deceptively fast with contemporary road testers recording 0-60mph in 8.2 seconds and a 121mph top speed. Writing in 1969, Autocar magazine went as far as to comment that "Even if the Austin-Healey 3000 had not been dropped, the TR6 would have taken over as the he-man's sports car in its own right".
Finished in a fetching Primrose Yellow with Black interior and Black hood, 'MWV 105J' is a LHD export example that was repatriated back to the UK in 1992. Self evidently the subject of past restoration work it is fitted with a set of period-looking alloy wheels. Subject to an engine overhaul, two new bumpers, and attention to the clutch in current ownership the Triumph has spent more recent years in the car-friendly climate of the Mediterranean and is offered with a current V5c document.
