Evolving through five guises over the course of an eighteen-year production run, the final Spitfire variant, the 1500, arrived in 1974. With a reputed 71bhp and 82lbft of torque on tap from its 1493cc OHV four-cylinder engine, the newcomer boasted genuine 100mph performance. Visually indistinguishable from its MkIV forebear save for some minor trim differences, the Spitfire 1500 was a decent seller on both sides of the Atlantic and the model remained in production until August 1980.

Registered new in the UK on 13^th May 1980, this last of the line Spitfire is finished in British Racing Green over a tan interior. Benefiting from both a new hood in 2020 at a cost of £200 (invoice on file) and a re-trimmed interior, the vendor advises the car now presents in fine condition overall as evidenced by the images. Ready for summer, this classic British sports convertible is offered with a Swansea V5c document.
