Lot 019: Triumph Stag

Classic Cars & Bikes, Brightwells Auctioneers and Valuers (12th March 2008)

Sold between 1970 and 1978, the Michelotti-styled Triumph Stag was designed to be a gentleman's sports tourer to compete head-on with rivals like the Mercedes SL. A full four-seater, it was powered by an all-new Triumph-designed 2,997cc V8 engine that produced 145bhp, sufficient to propel the car to a heady 115mph. Most cars were fitted with a three-speed auto box but some (like this one) had the desirable manual overdrive gearbox fitted.First registered in January 1973, this Stag has lots of history going back to 1990 when it was purchased from Lord Wenham Classic Cars for £7,000. Since then it has been treated to a rebuilt engine and gearbox, new petrol tank and new exhaust. With lots of other bills to show careful maintenance over the last 18 years, it has an MOT until August 2008.
