About this car

The Triumph 1800 Roadster is one of the more distinctive post-war British open cars, with its dickey-style rear seats and old-fashioned, coachbuilt looks. This 1948 example is powered by the 1800cc four-cylinder engine and uses a four-speed gearbox with a column-mounted change.

The car has been restored, and the dealer describes the paint as good and the chrome as excellent. The hood and the occasional rear seats are both said to be in excellent condition. Mechanically it is reported to be very good and to drive well. No mileage, registration or ownership history is given on the page.
