Notes:
The original production certificate from the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust is available.
A detailed report/ rating from a professional appraiser is also at hand (dated october 8th. 2018).
I bought this Triumph from its first UK-owner some 35 years ago and drive/ drove it at least once a week all year round, having made summer trips to Germany, Belgium, France, Spain, Italy and Great Britain. The car is in very good condition, mechanically very sound and cosmetically very OK with no weak spots whatsoever. It has the obvious but still very acceptable patina from motoring the Routes Nationales in France, rural areas in Italy and those typical country lanes in England, Scotland and Wales. Since the recent engine overhaul - and the extra horsepower which was profesionally added - it’s even so much more fun to drive through mountainous regions specifically because of the even further enhanced mid range torque it produces.
Reason for selling the car now:
I am retired in the meantime and my wife and I are interested to invest in a camper.
