1980 Triumph TR8 2 door convertible Additional Info:
TR8s are remarkable cars and this is one of the most remarkable.
These last Triumphs handle like true sports cars. They out-run the four, six and even eight cylinder competition. It is a performance match for the Sunbeam Tiger (at a third the Tiger price).
Here are the facts: low miles; reliable 3.5 Rover V8 with carb and intake mods; five speed transmission; new tires and battery; 2003 Platinum paint with flawless black top.
Steering is tight. Brakes work fine and acceleration is surprising. Car looks and sounds fast. It is.
The fringe benefits are front and rear spoilers; 15 in. wheels; cooling fans; recent compression check; spotless interior; stainless exhaust; JVC radio/CD; factory Heritage Certificate and a clear Texas title.
Pictures are a good representation of the car. No alibis. This is a traditional eBay auction with an 'at market' reserve. Happy to answer questions by phone (713 464 6717) or email. Car is in Houston. Come get it.
