About this Triumph TR6
The Triumph TR6 was officially introduced in January 1969 and styling was by Karmann of Germany. Triumph Motor Cars had a limited budget for the development of the TR6, and while the TR6 looked drastically different from the previous Michelotti styled TR4 and TR5, it had the same chassis, the TR5 2.5 Fi Engine engine, running gear, doors, windshield, and much of the body tub were taken directly from the TR250/TR5 models. The last TR6 was produced on the 20th of July of 1976. The Triumph TR6 evolved by route of the Michelotti-styled TR4 including the TR4A’s independent rear suspension, then taking over the short-lived TR5/TR250’s smooth fuel-injected 2.5-litre six cylinder engine. It all sat in a body shell reworked on a tight budget by Karmann, with an effective nose and tail face-lift; the centre section was unchanged. The TR6 isn’t the finest-handling sports car of its era, but many claim that it’s faster than an E-type on the wiggly bits and a total of 94,619 TR6's were built 8,370 RHD cars finding homes in the UK before production ended in July 1976.
According to the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate, this lovely Triumph TR6 125bhp - Chassis No: CR/6248-O and Engine No: CR/4114-HE is a matching number's car and was built in Coventry on 29th July 1974 and was sold by Dutton Forshaw in Blackpool and first registered in Preston, Lancashire on 1st April 1975 with its current number plate JHG 11N. It is still finished in its original colour scheme of Triumph New White with a Black vinyl interior and Black Soft top and when new, it came with the following factory options: Overdrive, Black Tonneau Cover, Static Seat Belts, Head Rests and Michelin XAS Tyres. It now has a Black Mohair Soft Top fitted plus a set of Revolution Alloy Wheels with Dunlop Tyres fitted and these really do compliment the TR6.
The car has had 8 former owners in total with the current owner having purchased the car from TR GB Ltd in July 2008. There is history dating back to the late 1990's, but during his 14 years of ownership he has completely restored the car and there is a breakdown of all his expenditure on the car totalling £24,393 and all invoices for parts and restoration works carried out by both TR specialist Enginuity in London and Ferrari specialist DK Engineering in Chorleywood are contained in the history file.
Apart from body and trim works, the car has had a complete mechanical rebuild with the Engine and Gearbox both having been fully rebuilt at a mileage of 71,192 miles in December 2019 and the car has now covered a genuine 74,300 miles from new and only 3,100 miles since the engine rebuild. The owner has driven just over 10,000 miles in the car during his 14 years of ownership and has been on many trips both here and abroad, but has now decided it is time to pass it on to a new owner to love and enjoy.
The car is in fantastic condition throughout, with only the odd tiny blemish here and there and it really is an excellent driving car with the many upgrades that it has been given.
Although this car is MOT exempt, upon sale we will obtain a new MOT and pre-sales service and it will come with our own 6 Month Mechanical Warranty which can be upgraded and extended at additional cost if required. It is also ULEZ exempt due to its Historic taxation class.
