Introduction
Darren Rungasamy
The accommodation for four people and the silky smooth V8 make it an ideal classic.
The Stag was a clever upmarket shift to align Triumph to compete against European luxury grand tourers. Unique in its execution, the Stag is a full four-seater, with a usable boot and a Targa roof which combines body strength integrity with the pleasures of open-top motoring. The design language was unmistakably stylish, conveying elegance and an element of aggression. Furthermore, Triumph's reputation for building charismatic sports cars translated perfectly to a Michelotti-styled V8 cruiser. With fully independent suspension, and refined driving manners the Stag was one of the most comfortable cars of its era. Best suited as a brisk effortless drive, rather than a performance car, it is a natural born-cruiser.
Exceptionally well presented, with a 2017 body and mechanical restoration under its belt, this 1974 Triumph Stag is finished in "Carmine Red", with a spotless tan leather interior. Finished to an impressive level, the car has seen several mechanical upgrades to ensure it runs as well as possible. This Stag is sold with invoices outlining thousands of pounds spent since the late 90s, it is MOT/road-tax exempt and comes with two keys.

Reserve Met – This car will sell to the highest bid this evening. Best, Kulraj – Trade Classics
Hi, does it come with a cover?
Hi – No cover, but they can be bought quite cheaply nowadays. Regards John
I note on the cold start that there was quite a bit of smoke emitted at the tailpipe. Given the significant work done in the past (2017) to overhaul the engine for this very reason, is there any known reason for it to smoke again now?
Hi – Please note the choke would have been fully engaged on a cold start, which would account for the additional smoke. Once up to driving temperature, there is little to no smoke. Regards John
Hi John. Would you consider putting the car through an MOT before collection by the winning bidder?
Hi Ray – Yes, I would discuss putting the Stag through an Mot test for the winning bidder. Regards John
Hi Do you have a matching factory hardtop and stand with the car ? Many thanks
Hi Stan – No matching hardtop, but second hand examples can be bought for as little as £175 as they are rarely used by owners. Regards John
Hi Does the car come with a matching factory hardtop ? Thanks
