1962 Triumph Vitesse 6 – Early Car/Excellent Condition For Sale

Triumph Vitesse 6 – Early Car/ Excellent Condition



The Triumph Herald was launched in 1959 and, like the Spitfire, was designed by Giovanni Michelotti. The Vitesse was introduced in May 1962 and was an immediate success providing sports car performance (it was faster than the Sunbeam Alpine) with four seats.



First registered in October 1962 this lovely Vitesse 6 is one of the earliest remaining on the road today. The car has a lovely history folder with period advertising literature driver’s handbook, and MOT’s/ invoices back to the early 1980’s.



Mechanically the car still retains her original, beautifully smooth, 1600cc straight six engine with utterly addictive exhaust note! The car benefits from a larger bore radiator, electric fan, and brake servo – all additions that allow the car to take modern road conditions in her stride.



The body has never been removed from the chassis - the panel gaps are as good as when she left the factory and the chassis is superb with no corrosion. The interior, again, is very original – seats, dash, carpets are outstanding and the rarely found sound proofing pads in the hood stowage area are still in place.



We were delighted to be offered back this car by a regular customer who appreciates quality and loves the first generation Vitesse 1600cc engine – it really is a sweet unit that just wants to go out and play and will always put a smile on your face.



An original specification Vitesse in this condition with low owners/ mileage is incredibly difficult to find – most have been (over) restored and have non-original specifications. Ideal for the Triumph enthusiast or simply a dog owner that wants a soft top with a backseat we expect this car to find an appreciative new custodian very quickly.
