Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This Triumph, previously stored in a garage, has been recommissioned with new brakes and a full service. Described as a 'great starter classic' with twin carbs and a notable exhaust, it presents a solid entry point into classic car ownership.
Condition
6
The car was sitting in a garage for some time, so it is unlikely to be in top condition. The seller recommissioned it, which included new brakes, discs, and a full service. The auctioneer notes suggest it's a good starter classic, implying some wear and tear.
