Why is Triumph considered a legendary brand in British motorsport?

Triumph made history with its iconic roadsters like the TR6 and Spitfire. The brand dominated rallying in the 1960s and 1970s, notably with the TR7, which won numerous world championship victories. Its sporting legacy lives on in the imagination of enthusiasts to this day.

What is so special about the Triumph TR6 engine that makes it such a sought-after model?

The TR6 was powered by a 2.5-liter inline-6 engine producing 150 horsepower, making it one of the most powerful roadsters of its time. Its distinctive sound and performance (0 to 100 km/h in 8.2 seconds) made it an icon of the 1970s.

Why is the Triumph Spitfire named after a fighter plane?

The name 'Spitfire' was chosen as a tribute to the famous British fighter of World War II. This small roadster, launched in 1962, embodied the fighting spirit and British elegance. Its edgy design and taut lines effectively recalled the sleek silhouette of the legendary aircraft.

What makes the Triumph Herald unique in automotive history?

The Herald was revolutionary in its construction: it used a chassis separate from the body, allowing for complete disassembly in a matter of hours. This feature greatly facilitated repairs and customization. In addition, its exceptional turning circle of just 7.6 meters made it one of the most maneuverable cars of its time.

Why do collectors particularly seek out the latest Triumphs produced?

The last Triumphs, produced until 1981, are highly sought after because they mark the end of a golden era of British motorsport. The TR7, the last of the line, was nicknamed 'The Shape of Things to Come' and today represents a unique testament to automotive design from the 1970s and 1980s, which has become highly sought after by collectors.
