1974 Triumph TR6


Specifications


Description

 

Although sharing a name with the motorcycle manufacturer, British firm Triumph Motors used to make some highly desirable sports cars, with the TR6 being one of the company’s most famous creations.

There is a feeling of almost awesome solidity with this car, as though the car was carved out of a single block of steel. That solid feeling comes from the taut, low built chassis, with rugged four wheel independent suspension. Its a car for precise driving designed by engineers that really understand sports cars.

This car has long-legged, go forever performance from its high-torque six cylinder engine and I think this can be agreed by TR6 drivers anywhere or by people who have simply driven in one.

ABOUT THIS CAR

  • Built in Coventry in 1973 and exported to USA. Imported to Australia in 2010 had extensive work done by Healey factory, where it was converted to RHD.
  • Major recent overhaul work carried out by Upper Classics in Christchurch New Zealand within the last 4 years. This included a full engine strip and rebuild, all wiring 100% replaced, brake system overhauled.
  • Four (like new) Chrome Wire Wheels (spare painted)
  • Straight body looks to be pretty clean from any rust
  • Beautiful shining paintwork.
  • Runs and drives superb.
  • Manual (NO) Overdrive
  • Twin Carburetor.
  • Very tidy example.
  • Car Jack, Manuals, Spare keys.

The TR6 is not just a great car, but a sound investment, as they are still relatively cheap and haven’t found their value in the market yet.

There’s also a thriving community online for parts and advice, so if you’re considering something to both enjoy and tinker with, the TR6 may be the perfect car for you.

Will be sold WOF'd and Registered.

Waimak Classic Cars Ltd is a New Zealand registered company and accepts that the vehicle being sold must be of “acceptable quality” in terms of section 7 of the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (the Act) having regard to “the nature of the goods”.

Waimak Classic Cars is not aware of any specific defects with the vehicle, however (a) such a vehicle being a classic vehicle may have mechanical breakdowns, electrical failures at inconvenient times and maintenance costs being part of and parcel of ownership of a classic vehicle; (b) reliability is a combination of the particular nature of the classic vehicle, how it is being driven, how it has been maintained, and to a certain extent luck; (c) because of the age of the vehicle, and its propensity to rust, it is likely that the vehicle would have been fully or partially restored, or at least repainted at some point in its life, maybe even more than once. Waimak Classic Cars does not know, and cannot give advice on how good any restoration work on the vehicle had been.

The Purchaser acknowledges that the vehicle is being sold as a classic car; that in terms of the Act and the nature of the goods, the vehicle is an old car, bike or boat, that may have visual and hidden faults, unlike a new motor vehicle.

The Purchaser is encouraged to personally fully inspect the vehicle and also to have the vehicle inspected, and fully assessed by an experienced, independent, specialist garage - before committing to purchase. While the Purchaser is entitled to rely on statements given by Waimak Classic Cars as being correct, where goods such as vehicles are concerned, with so many moving parts and rust being an issue with older vehicles; a Purchaser who chooses not to seek independent professional assistance when assessing the quality of what they propose to buy is considered as buying at their own risk, and if the vehicle then turns out to be of less than the represented quality, or not up to the Purchaser's expectation, or in the Purchaser opinion not fit for purpose; then the Purchaser is considered to have contributed to their own loss and should not expect any refunds or betterment from Waimak Classic Cars.

The Purchaser acknowledges that they have read and fully understand this notification and the nature of a car which is many years old.
