This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Iconic Sale at Supercar Fest 2025 on Saturday the 17th of May, Sywell Aerodrome, Sywell, Northampton, NN6 0BN. Stylish, fast and practical, the Stag began life as a Triumph 2000-based styling exercise by Italian maestro Giovanni Michelotti. A 2+2 convertible, Michelotti's design featured a quad-lamp grille and sculpted front and rear ends, the latter destined to appear on many future Triumphs. By the time production commenced in 1970, the 2000's six-cylinder engine had been replaced by a 3-litre V8 based on an overhead-camshaft four, later to power the Dolomite range, already being produced by Triumph for SAAB. A padded, 'T'-shaped roll bar bracing the door pillars and windscreen was one of the Stag's most distinctive features and the model could also be ordered in soft top, hardtop or soft with hardtop forms. Presented here for auction is a fully restored 1975 Triumph Stag classically finished in Leyland White with a superbly presented interior in tan with matching Biscuit carpets. Supplied new to the UK and first registered in the summer of 1975, our vendor purchased this example from our Iconic Auctioneers May Sale in 2022. The car's previous owner had acquired it from long term ownership and set about a highly detailed, complete ground-up restoration with a Triumph specialist workshop. This restoration included a bare-metal respray, extensive engine overhaul, new hood, completely refinished interior and the drive train, including the gearbox, was stripped and rebuilt using new or reconditioned parts wherever possible. New wheels were fitted with new tyres, the braking system overhauled and a new exhaust fitted. As you can see, the result is simply remarkable with a final finish the envy of Stag owners anywhere. As is often the case with no expense spared restorations, the overall cost of the parts and labour would far exceed today's very reasonable guide and in this case, within the history file are full details of the restoration including a figure of £19,000 for labour alone, without parts. At the time of photography, the Stag had covered 75,662 miles and it's accompanied by the history file which includes invoices supporting the restoration with images documenting the work, other related paperwork, its V5C registration document and previous MOTs. Undoubtedly one of the very best on the market, this classic British sports car now has another 50 years of enjoyable motoring to offer.
