On the Surface: This is a lovely example of a MkIII Triumph Stag, this car is finished in striking Pimento Red with a Tan soft top over Black leather interior.

Maintenance & History: Accompanied by a comprehensive history file, this Stag benefits from invoices totaling almost £15,000 in expenditure, ensuring its upkeep and reliability. It also includes MOT certificates dating back to 1983 (which leads us to believe the the mileage may be correct at 73,599), an original Triumph Stag Handbook, and the purchase invoice from when The Vendor’s Husband purchased the car from Modern Motoring of Paignton in 2005 for £2,500. This Stag remained in the ownership of the Vendor’s husband from November 2005 to July 2024. There are just four former keepers outside of The Vendor and her Husband.

The Model: Produced between 1970 and 1978 by the Triumph Motor Company, the Stag is a quintessential British 2+2 sports tourer styled by the iconic Italian designer Giovanni Michelotti. Designed to be a rival and alternative to the Mercedes-Benz SL class, it featured a unique B-pillar “roll bar” hoop for added rigidity and safety.

Sale Insight: This Triumph Stag offers an excellent opportunity to acquire a well-preserved example of a British classic. With its long family ownership, low former keepers and significant investment in maintenance it’s a fantastic example that I am sure any enthusiast would appreciate.
