[art #260R]. Limited Edition Print by Steve Dunn.

The 1974 Triumph Spitfire 1500 here shown in red, is a legendary small British sports car of that era. Known for its charming design and nimble handling, the Spitfire 1500 represents the final iteration of the Spitfire range, which had been in production since 1962. With a low-slung body and a classic sportscar convertible top the Spitfire was an attractive option for those who wanted the thrill of open-air motoring without breaking the bank.

Under the bonnet the 1500 featured a 1.5-litre inline-four engine, producing 71bhp, which, while modest by modern standards provided a lively driving experience thanks to the car's lightweight construction. Paired with a four-speed manual transmission, the Spitfire could reach a top speed of about 100mph, offering plenty of fun for weekend road trips and spirited drives.

The design which was penned by Michelotti, is unmistakably British, with a long bonnet, chrome bumpers, and flowing lines that give the Spitfire its classic British roadster appeal. This model in particular benefited from a few updates, including a revised suspension for improved ride quality. For enthusiasts, the Spitfire 1500 remains a beloved symbol of classic sportscar heritage, known as much for its character as its engaging drive.
