"Triumph Spitfire" (1974) green
The 1974 Triumph Spitfire 1500 here shown in green, is a stand-out
small British sports car of the seventies. Known for its charming design and
nimble handling, the Spitfire 1500 represented the final iteration of
the Spitfire range, which had been in production since 1962. With a
low-slung body and classic sportscar convertible top the Spitfire was an
attractive option for those who wanted the thrill of open-air motoring
without breaking the bank.
The 1500 featured a 1.5-litre inline-four engine
producing 71bhp, which, while modest by modern standards
provided a lively driving experience thanks to the car's lightweight
construction. Paired with a four-speed manual transmission, the Spitfire
could reach a top speed of about 100mph, offering plenty of fun for
weekends away and spirited driving.
Penned by Michelotti, the design is unmistakably British, with a long
bonnet, chrome bumpers, and flowing lines that give the Spitfire its
classic roadster appeal. For enthusiasts, the Spitfire 1500 remains a beloved symbol of classic
British sports car heritage, known for its character and engaging drive.
