Seller's comments about 1971' Triumph GT6
The Triumph GT6 MK3 was launched in 1970 with an entirely new body shell and styling similar to the MK1V spitfire. Better aerodynamics and 105bhp allowed a top speed of 112mph making it significantly quicker than the MGB.
This car is a 1971 GT6 in its original colour of Saffron. It comes to us direct from private ownership and has had just three previous owners from new – the V5 show four previous but it was in long term ownership from 1978 until 2007 and was registered by that owner’s wife on his passing.
This GT6 is a ”Rotoflex” car fitted with overdrive that is running and driving beautifully and has lead a pampered life with very a great deal of money spent on it in recent years. In 2007 it was treated to a light restoration including various new panels and a new bonnet and at a cost of £10k, then in 2012 it had an engine refresh, gearbox re-build and a very long list of replacement mechanical and cosmetic parts. More recently it’s had another round of spending including re-build of the overdrive unit and a new set of minilite style wheels and new tyres. It’s fitted with some useful upgrades including a spin on oil filter conversion, electronic ignition and a high quality wood rimmed steering wheel.
This is not a concours car – there are various very minor cosmetic flaws but it is best described as excellent in all areas and it is ready to use. It comes with a comprehensive history file including new and old V5’s, original owners manual, workshop manuals and some spares and original parts.
