Triumph Other (1980)
for sale

Price: US $5,395.00

Description:

Nicely restored, rust free 1980 Triumph TR7 in the perfect British roadster green/tan color combination. I have a 12-car car collection and I'm selling a few of my cars now to make room in the garage for some new additions this spring. My collection leans mostly to Saabs and Volvo's so the Brits are the ones leaving.
I purchased this TR7 from a Triumph guy (he had 5 Triumph's in his collection) a couple of years ago. I've owned several Spitfires and a TR6 and this was my first TR7. I was quite surprised at how comfortable a driver they are...the 5-speed transmission makes it a practical car for around town and on the highway. And for the price- in my book the TR7 is THE best value anywhere for a European roadster.

My cars are babied and are always garaged, under a cover and on a trickle charge when not being driven. This is a no-nonsense, no-issues, honest and affordable British roadster that would fit right in at the next car show. Buy-it-now price is less than what I have in it. My loss is your gain.
In person inspections are encouraged. I live a few miles from the Charlottesville, Va. regional airport (CHO)... fly in and drive home!
