Description
Triumph Spitfire Mk 4 | 1972
Highlights:
– 1.5-Liter, 4-cylinder petrol engine with manual transmission
– Black soft top
– A good base for further restoration
The Triumph Spitfire is one of those compact British cabriolets that made classic open-top driving accessible: light, pure, and with timeless lines. This 1972 example is equipped with a 1500cc 4-cylinder engine and a 4-speed manual transmission, giving you that truly direct, mechanical driving feel. Because it’s a great base for further restoration, this Spitfire is ideal for the enthusiast who enjoys improving and refining step by step; both the paintwork and interior show signs of wear, making it a suitable project with potential.
The exterior immediately catches the eye with its red paintwork, classic chrome details, and beautiful roadster proportions. The black soft top is present and creates a beautiful contrast with the body color; a luggage rack is also mounted on the rear for added practical charm. Inside, you’ll find a black interior with a characteristic wooden dashboard and classic gauges, fitting for the authentic 70s feel. Here too, signs of wear are visible, which complements the overall picture: an honest Spitfire with character, ready to be completely restored to your specifications.
