Launched at the 1962 London Motor Show and admired until 1980, the Triumph Spitfire stands out with over 314,000 units produced, surpassing its rivals except for the MGB. Designed by the legendary Giovanni Michelotti, this roadster was inspired by the Triumph Herald and features a stylish tilt nose for superb engine access, and a comfortable, spacious interior.
The Spitfire is renowned for its sporty design, featuring rack-and-pinion steering, front disc brakes, and an agile 25-foot turning circle. Powered by a Herald engine making 63 bhp, the Spitfire offered a top speed of 92-93 mph and spirited performance. The Spitfire not only turned heads but also achieved remarkable competition success, including a class win at the 1964 Tour De France and significant accolades in SCCA racing.
This beautiful 1963 Spitfire MK1 is offered in black over a two-tone black and red interior. This car has been very well maintained, and with only 57,521 miles this car is ready for the open road.
