1976 Triumph TR6 TR6 2.5L
Summary:
Swashbuckling sports car
Faults:
Owning the car for over 37 years, nothing major has gone wrong, just the usually maintenance upkeep like water pump replacement, mechanical fuel pump replacement, clutch/slave cylinder rebuild, brake master cylinder, and brake pads/shoes replacements.
The car has been very reliable and I still get a smile every time when I crank up and hear that lovely exhaust note from the straight 6 cylinder.
General Comments:
My car is British Racing Green, tan interior, electric overdrive in 3rd and 4th gears. Still have the original interior and dash with no cracks. I have kept it almost 100% stock in appearances. Even found original replacement parts on eBay including the original NOS Wagner sealed headlights. And if future parts if needed, from The Roadster Factory and Moss Motors. Had it repainted in 1991 and it still looks great! Even have the redline Michelin tires.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

When I was a teenager back in the early to mid 1970's, I don't think there was a car I wanted more. The TR6 was a great-looking British Sports Car!
