1980 TRIUMPH TR7 V8 CONVERTIBLE

3.5-litre V8, manual. This Triumph TR7 benefits from a 3.5-litre Rover V8 engine conversion (hence the TR8 livery) complete with Stage 1 tune, lightened flywheel and uprated rear suspension. It cuts an impressive figure thanks to a recent respray in its original Platinum Silver, de-bumpered silhouette, and new stripes as per the ‘Victory’ special edition. We're told the engine “pulls very well” and runs on Evans waterless coolant, and the battery is new. 

The previous keeper owned the car from 2015 and had it MoT tested almost annually, until it passed to his widow in 2025. Its history file contains nearly £4000 of receipts (2012-20), MoT certificates (2012-17), V5C and Dyno printout from 2011 showing 188.5bhp. The odometer shows 28,545 miles.
