Description
KEY FACTS This Triumph TR6 is an exciting classic British roadster, which has previously been restored and has benefited from further investment by the current owner. It is powered by a 2.5-litre inline-six engine, driving the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. First registered in 1970, this example was previously in the USA, before moving to Sweden in the late 1980s, and is now located in France. The odometer shows 77,300 miles, which the seller believes to be the genuine total. EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES This TR6 is finished red with a black soft-top roof, and a black vinyl-trimmed interior, which is accented by smart wood inlays. Equipment includes chrome individual air filters. The car’s speedometer has a sticker over the readout, to enable the speed to be read in km/h rather than mph. Accompanied by a jack, spare wheel, interior trim for speaker installation, faux leather headrest trim, and three keys (one for ignition, one for doors, one for boot). CONDITION Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: a dent and a touched-in chip on the front wing, chips on the lower part of the rear valance, and small chips behind the wheels. There is also a slightly whistling clutch release bearing, though this does not prevent daily driving. SERVICE HISTORY The seller states that in July 2026 at 76,950 miles the engine oil was changed, water hoses were replaced, the soft top and tonneau cover were replaced, and the fan wiring harness and sensor were refurbished. SUMMARY The Triumph TR6 is a quintessential British roadster, celebrated for its robust inline-six engine, engaging manual gearbox, and classic styling. This example reportedly benefits from a prior body restoration, with further maintenance during the current ownership. It would make a characterful addition to any collection of classic cars, ready to be enjoyed on spirited weekend drives or for touring. Descriptions are provided
