Triumph TR8, 3.9 V8, 1980
Very neat 1980 Triumph TR8 in dark blue. This TR8 is a neat driver’s car, a car with a fat V8 to have a lot of fun. What a lot of fun comes out of that dual exhaust! The wedge shape was hugely advanced in the late 70’s, early 80’s. Only 2750 TR8s were built, you will understand that they are becoming quite rare today. There are a lot less of them remaining than the 2750 built. This TR is equipped in dark blue. The car has the correct blue checkered trim and matching door panels, the seats have just been reupholstered. As original, the carpet set is also blue, as are the armrest and rear panel. The soft top and hood cover are both fitted in blue vinyl as was factory standard. The steering wheel is also the original blue leather steering wheel, very rare. The engine has been upgraded to the 3.9 liter V8 , a well-known and reliable upgrade from the British Leyland factory. The 5-speed transmission shifts razor sharp. The dashboard is all original and everything works as it should , the open folding headlights give the car a special look when you turn on the lights. The Triumph stands on the original factory supplied aluminum wheels. Don’t expect an over the top restored car for this money but do expect a wonderful, neat driver’s car with great technology! Wedge shaped cars are increasingly sought after in recent years, especially since there are so few of them left. Who will be the first for this low priced rarity ?
