1970 Triumph TR6

Beschrijving

Built between 1968 and 1976, the Triumph TR6 is one of the most iconic British sports cars of its era—a spirited, no-nonsense roadster that captured the hearts of driving purists around the world. With its muscular stance, classic proportions, and throaty exhaust note, the TR6 delivered a raw, analog driving experience that still resonates with enthusiasts today.

At its core, the TR6 is powered by a robust 2.5-liter inline-six engine, offering around 150 horsepower in European models (and about 104 hp in U.S. versions due to emission regulations). Mated to a 4-speed manual gearbox (often with optional overdrive), it's known for punchy acceleration, strong mid-range torque, and a distinctive growl that gives the car a character all its own.

Designed by Karmann of Germany, the TR6 retains the classic TR-series charm but with a slightly squared-off, aggressive look—deep-set headlights, a long hood, and a short rear deck make it instantly recognizable. Inside, it's all vintage British sports car: wood veneer dash, simple gauges, and a snug cockpit that feels connected to the road.

Despite its relatively simple engineering, the TR6 delivers a surprisingly lively and engaging driving experience. Independent rear suspension and rack-and-pinion steering provide confident handling, while its mechanical honesty gives it a soul that modern cars can't replicate.
