The Triumph Spitfire debuted in 1962 as a stylish and affordable two-seat roadster, designed by Giovanni Michelotti and built by Standard-Triumph in Coventry. With its lightweight body, front-engine rear-wheel-drive layout, and independent suspension, it delivered agile handling and a spirited driving experience. Powered by a small yet lively four-cylinder engine, the Spitfire quickly became a favorite among enthusiasts who appreciated its combination of British charm, mechanical simplicity, and fun-to-drive nature. Its low stance, long bonnet, and classic proportions have made it one of the most recognizable small sports cars of the 1960s. Today, the Spitfire remains a sought-after entry point into classic motoring, offering affordable thrills and vintage style in equal measure.
