1971 Triumph GT6 Mk III – 2.0L Inline-Six, 4-Speed Manual, Just 31k Miles, Two Owners from New
This 1971 Triumph GT6 Mk III is a stylish and well-preserved British sports coupe showing just 31,417 miles and benefiting from long-term care by only two owners since new. Finished in its original color and powered by a 2.0-liter inline-six mated to a 4-speed manual transmission, the GT6 Mk III combines refined mechanical performance with sleek fastback styling—making it one of the most distinctive compact sports cars of its era.
Introduced in late 1970, the Mk III brought a number of improvements to the GT6 lineup, including a revised front-end design and enhanced suspension geometry, which improved handling and ride comfort. This example captures the essence of that final and most refined generation, with its well-balanced proportions and spirited driving dynamics.
Well-Preserved Example with Low Mileage
With just over 31,000 miles recorded, this GT6 presents as a lightly driven survivor that has been consistently maintained and garage-kept. The inline-six engine delivers strong torque and a classic exhaust note, while the 4-speed gearbox shifts smoothly, making it a delight to drive on back roads or weekend outings.
The interior remains in excellent condition, retaining its original upholstery, instrumentation, and switchgear. The car’s overall appearance reflects a commitment to preservation rather than restoration, making it an appealing candidate for collectors who value originality and proper upkeep.
Summary
This 1971 Triumph GT6 Mk III is a standout among small-displacement British coupes, offering an ideal mix of style, sound, and sports car engagement. With its low mileage, desirable manual transmission, and two-owner history, it represents an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a genuine Mk III example in honest, driver-ready condition.
Whether you’re an enthusiast of British motoring heritage or simply in search of a fun, vintage 6-cylinder coupe, this GT6 delivers all the character of a classic sports car with timeless appeal.
