Description

Highlights

  • UK-spec fuel-injected car with overdrive on 3rd and 4th gears
  • In previous ownership for 20 years, always garaged
  • Accompanied by an extensive history file with receipts documenting regular servicing and maintenance
  • The vendor describes the body and chassis as sound and solid, consistently passing MOT

The Appeal

The fuel-injected TR6 PI was reserved exclusively for the UK market, offering a more spirited driving experience than the carburetted export models, thanks to their higher compression ratio and an estimated 20-or-so-hp on tap. It's a natural conclusion of the ever-developing Triumph sports car, traditional to the core and, thanks to the legendary design team at Karmann, very handsomely styled.

This particular example has benefited from long-term, careful stewardship. The previous registered keeper held the car for 20 years, always keeping it garaged. Rather than being subjected to a major restoration, it has instead been maintained steadily over the years, with various mechanical work carried out during the current ownership. Finished in its original Pimento Red and presenting well for its age, this TR6 PI offers an appealing opportunity for the enthusiast seeking an authentic, well-maintained example ready to be enjoyed.
