1971 Triumph 2.5Pi Mk2 Saloon Auto NOW SOLD SOLD
Very low genuine mileage of just over 51, 000
Some History.........
the first lady owner bought from new and covered a staggeringly low 30, 000 odd miles in the first 10 year before she sold it to the chap who had carefully looked after it for her, when she bought a Merc.
He used it daily for the next 4 years, re MOT'd it when the tax ran out in 1988, fitting a then readily available mild steel, brand new exhaust system (labels still visible !!) and parked it up in a locked garage until repairs on the garage in October 2009 meant the car had to be rolled out, which is when it was bought by a friend of mine.
The car was bought by a gentleman in the Midlands who undertook some re-commissioning work before selling to me in July 2012.
The bodywork is quite solid and appears to have the original sills with little welding of the body over the years, but as can be seen, the lower few inches of the doors and sills have been sprayed silver and the word ‘Injection’ hand painted in gold on the rear wings.
Other period mods include a towbar and electrics, rear fog lamps and a radio cassette (works).
I have completed the re-commissioning with new discs, pads, shoes, brake cylinders, track rod ends, front suspension bushes, battery, water pump.
I have also fitted service exchange injectors, fuel pump and metering unit totaling around £500.
On the downside, the autobox squawks a bit on initial take-up of drive and is rough on the down-change, really needs stripping and looking at.
The interior veneer / wood caps could do with re-varnishing and there is a crack in the centre console next to the choke knob.
The rear window rubber is cracked (does not leak) and the door seals are perished.
Bodywork wise, the paint is a bit dull with the silver flash band now flaking and would really benefit from a respray, there is a rust hole in the water drain area of the OS wing (photo), not structural and not visible with the bonnet closed.
The bonnet has a blanked hole where a mascot was once fitted, and a few small areas of surface rust in places.
Overall the car starts and drives well, engine is very sweet and mechanically quiet, noting the gearbox issue, the interior is really good and the body is generally very solid, straight and unadulterated but with tired paint.
Please read this description carefully, I have tried to present an accurate description of the car and it’s faults, I may have missed some minor issues.
For these reasons I would recommend coming to see the vehicle if you are interested, and I am of course happy to answer questions. I would not recommend driving the car any significant distance due to the gearbox issue noted, just in case.
Reason for sale? Too many projects and not enough time.
Car is located near Ashburton, South Devon.
Collection only, payment by cash, BACS or cleared cheque. UK Buyers only
