The Triumph Spitfire 1500 TC, produced in 1981, represented the final phase of the Spitfire series that began in 1962. Known for its sporty appearance, this model was characterized by compact bodywork and dynamic handling. The 1500 TC was equipped with a 1493 cc engine, which gave the driving experience a sporty flair. The Spitfire series became a symbol of British sports cars and was loved for its combination of style, performance and accessibility.
In the 1970s and 1980s, the Triumph Spitfire was a popular choice among open sports car enthusiasts. In addition to its sporting performance, the 1500 TC offered practical advantages, such as a relatively low entry price and a low-maintenance design. This made the car attractive not only to the avid car enthusiast, but also to the everyday driver looking for a fun driving experience. The Spitfire had a recognizable design with a long hood and shorter rear end, which contributed to its timeless charm.
The Triumph Spitfire 1500 TC offered is in drivable condition, which adds to its appeal to potential buyers. Also, the car is road tax free, which can be a financial advantage. Some maintenance bills are available, which may provide insight into the care and attention that has been given to the car. To get a good idea of the lot, we advise you to come to the viewing day.
