The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"There is a rattle when decelerating, likely a half shaft u-joint.The centre console/guages need to be replaced, which I've ordered. When I get the parts I'll change them."

Up for sale is a good or better condition Triumph Spitfire. Clean metal, runs good, loads of recent work and new parts. Appraisal from two years ago put it at 9,000, which is what I have it insured for.

Just certified, safety is valid until mid november. Buy it and drive it until winter and she's ready to go next summer.

I have receipts for all this recent work and new parts:

Clutch master cylinder
New Clutch
Chrome Wheel Trim
I have a second soft top in better condition, which I can include, but the one on it passes
4 to 1 racing manifold
water pump
started solenoid
Battery
brake hoses
Oil seals and bearing on rear wheels
Dash pad
hood hinges
hood seal, trunk seal
mud flaps, medalions, air deflectors, all sorts of trim and badges
distributor cap, rotor, plugs

headlght switch
hazard switch
Frame has been rebuilt where needed with 3/8inch steel, you can see in the picture, a very solid frame/body

The centre console of the dash is a little rough. But guess what? I've got a used one in the mail with all the gauges. Can install.

When I add up the receipts since 2011 the total is just shy of 2,000 dollars, more with labour, and not including the paint job which the previous owner did himself (he was a retired professional).

Jaguar F Type V6 S vs Triumph Street Triple R in open-air track attack

Sun, 21 Sep 2014

Typically, these track battle videos pair up car against car or, in more disparate circumstances, car versus crossover, as we saw the other day. While the outcome of that battle was quite predictable, what'll happen when an equally fetching (and fast) four-wheeler is put up against one of the icons of the two-wheeled world? Evo just had to find out.
Matching up a Jaguar F-Type V6 S Convertible against a Triumph Street Triple R is at least more of an even fight than the last battle between the Porsche Cayman GTS and Macan Turbo. The Triumph has a 675-cc engine to work with, and is very light. Meanwhile, the Jag has a thumping 380-horsepower, 3.0-liter, supercharged V6 to haul about it's considerably heftier heft. Who will come out on top?
You'll need to watch the full video to find out.
