1968 TRIUMPH 2.5 PI MK1
2498cc, manual. This lovely Triumph 2.5 PI is finished in Pageant Blue and presents smartly overall, sitting on Rostyle wheels and trimmed with a gracefully aged brown leather interior. It's equipped with an overdrive and power steering, throttle bodies (in place of the original injection system) a Moto-Lita steering wheel, and a spin-on filter for easier servicing. The vendor reports that it is running well, and he believes the odometer reading of 35,693 miles is genuine (although we can not confirm this).
Invoices show much expenditure during 2013-15, but the car has spent the last few years in storage after passing its last MoT with no advisories in 2017. This vendor acquired it earlier this year and invested in a careful recommissioning process, with new parts including new springs and dampers, new distributor, new fuel injectors x6 and a rebuilt metering unit. One invoice is for over £1700 in May this year, and these are accompanied by a few old MoT certificates and tax discs, spare keys, and the current V5C which indicates only 5 former keepers. First registration was in November 1968.
