1974 Triumph TR6 Roadster
This PI model features a 150 hp fuel-injected engine and a limited-slip differential, rebuilt in 2024. The car is equipped with Lotus wheels, recently rebuilt, fitted with new tires. It has rare white front turn signals, a mohair soft top replaced in 2025, and new bumpers also from 2025. Additional features include an oil cooler, adjustable shock absorbers, and Saffron Yellow paint. The interior is finished with Cognac leather upholstery.
Extensive documentation is available, including manuals, history, and maintenance invoices. The original steering wheel and tools are included. The car has been owned by a single owner for nearly 50 years (1977–2025). Over the past two years, approximately €10,000 has been invested in mechanical and cosmetic upgrades.
History and Documentation
This unique Triumph TR6 has a remarkable history and rare specifications. Unlike many, it was not delivered to the United States but to its home country, Great Britain. Delivered new on March 18, 1974, to a British serviceman, it was imported to the Netherlands in 1977, where it remained with the same owner until 2025—a total of 48 years.
The first owner chose a limited-slip differential instead of overdrive, a sought-after upgrade that enhances handling. The 2.5-liter 6-cylinder engine features a smooth fuel injection system. The car is unrestored but in very solid condition, with recent significant investments both mechanically and cosmetically.
The Triumph comes with a folder of documentation, including owner’s manuals, maintenance invoices, registration papers, and original tools. Two sets of keys are included. In 2026, it was appraised at €34,000 and verified as a car in very good condition with normal signs of use.
Exterior
The Triumph TR6 is a real head-turner, showcased in the stunning Saffron Yellow color. The alloy wheels, sourced from a Lotus Europa, give the car extra character. These wheels have been on the car since it was imported to the Netherlands in 1977, recently fully refurbished, and fitted with five new Vredestein Sprint Classic tires, representing an investment of about €2,000. The entire wheel set is in mint condition.
New bumpers have been installed, and the headlights, taillights, turn signals, and parking lights have been replaced. The rare white front turn signals add a distinctive touch. The door seals have been replaced, and a new mohair soft top was installed in 2025. A practical luggage rack is mounted on the rear. The paintwork shows only normal signs of wear, with no significant damage or dents. Chrome trim and lighting are well-maintained.
Interior
The interior is well-maintained and largely refurbished. The brown leather seats are in very good condition, and the dashboard features stylish cherry wood, also in excellent condition. The door panels are upholstered in brown leather, creating a warm, luxurious atmosphere.
Original Smiths gauges are functioning properly; the odometer and ammeter have been professionally overhauled and calibrated. The car is equipped with the factory-installed optional heater, a radio, and various practical upgrades, including seat belts, a safety switch for the fuel pump, new carpets, a new leather gearshift knob, refurbished window cranks, and a USB port. A wooden sports steering wheel has been installed; the original steering wheel is included. The trunk is neat and tidy, with space for the spare tire.
