TitleThe British MX5: Triumph Spitfire 1500 - car spotting
DescriptionIn this car spotting video we have our first non-JDM car: a Triumph Spitfire, but in this video it will become clear why this car is significant for the Japanese car market. This Spitfire was the final incarnation of the range: the Triumph Spitfire 1500. The 1500 stands for the final 1493cc engine which delivered 71 horsepower. With a kerbweight of 790 kilograms it's quite okay for its time. This Spitfire is of the last ones produced: it got first registered in September 1979, if the tweed interior didn't give it away already. I found this Spitfire parked on the third floor of a parking garage in my hometown. It looks immaculate and, judging from the paintjob and perfect interior, I almost dare to say it has never been restored. I really was stunned by its sheer beauty.
