About this car

This 1973 Triumph TR6 is a CR-series car, the carburettor-fed 125 bhp specification, and it has the factory overdrive that makes the four-speed manual a more relaxed long-distance proposition. It is finished in red and shows 6,968 miles.

The car has been with the same owner since 1989. It went through a bare-metal restoration that was completed in 1994, which included new Stanpart front and rear wings and a full rebuild of the engine, gearbox and back axle. The page says only about 6,000 miles have been covered since the work was finished, which is unusually little for a TR6 restored three decades ago.

The dealer says the car will receive a full health check, a service and a new MOT before sale.

Performance

The maker’s official figures for this model, not measurements of this car (Triumph (British Leyland) published 125 bhp DIN for CR-series 2.5 PI. Weight, top speed and 0-60 left null because the commonly quoted figures come from period road tests, not confirmed factory data.).

Engine: 2,498 cc, 6 cylinders
