Benefit from the author's decades of working on and writing about
Triumphs, with the real facts you need to decide whether a sports
Triumph is going to suit you. The book covers all small sports Triumph
models, explains how and where to buy one, how to handle auctions and
whether to buy the best you can find, or to take on a restoration or a
rolling restoration. Triumph Spitfire and GT6 advises on choosing the
right model for your needs and your budget, and describes the flavour of
the more sporty or more cruising Spitfire types, contrasted with the
more expensive and more powerful GT6 coupés.
The book explains in practical language how to apply key checks to spot
a bad car quickly, then gives you a comprehensive inspection guide and
an in-depth analysis of the various models' strengths and weaknesses. It
provides inside technical information to save you the painful process of
learning about Triumph foibles the hard way. It discusses upgrades using
the author's own research, and includes comprehensive details of club
backup and support organisations, and model specs.
