This 1980 Triumph Spitfire is a charming and well-maintained
example of classic British motoring, offering a fun and engaging
driving experience. Finished in a rich Maroon exterior over a clean
Beige interior, it pairs classic color tones with a sporty,
roadster style. Power comes from a 1500cc 4-cylinder engine mated
to a 4-speed manual transmission and stock rear end, providing
light, nimble handling and an authentic analog feel. Recent
upgrades include a new intake manifold and Weber carburetor for
improved performance, a new electronic distributor for reliable
ignition, new carpet for a refreshed cabin feel, and stylish
aluminum wheels that complement the car's vintage lines. Owned
previously by an older couple who cared for it meticulously, the
car has received consistent maintenance and is in solid condition,
ready for weekend cruises or casual car shows.
The Triumph Spitfire was introduced in 1962 as a small, affordable
sports car designed to compete with the likes of the MG Midget and
Austin-Healey Sprite. Designed by the famed Italian stylist
Giovanni Michelotti, the Spitfire stood out for its sleek,
low-slung body and fully independent suspension - features uncommon
in its price range at the time. Over five generations, the Spitfire
gradually evolved in performance and comfort, with the final model,
the 1500, produced from 1974 to 1980. The 1980 model year marked
the end of the line for the Spitfire, making it the last chapter of
one of Britain's most beloved roadsters. Today, the Spitfire
remains a popular and accessible classic, celebrated for its
lightweight driving dynamics, mechanical simplicity, and
unmistakable charm.
