1,493cc, overdrive gearbox. This low ownership Spitfire has been off the road since 2016. It is described by the vendor as an ideal rolling restoration project which currently drives and stops. A new battery and various other new parts have been fitted to get it running and driving for the auction. There is a 1993 bill of sale to the owner, a member of the Triumph Sports Six Club, who retained the car for twenty years and has been registered to its last owner since 2013. In 2013, the new owner changed the colour from yellow to red. It is noted that between 2000 and 2001 the speedo ceased working at 66,322 miles which is still currently recorded. The history file contains current and older V5s dating back to 1992, MoTs dating from the 1990's to 2015 when last issued and older receipts. Five registered owners.
