John Bloor's resurrection of Triumph and its transformation into a thriving global brand is one of the more unlikely manufacturing success stories of modern times. Unveiled at the Cologne Show in the autumn of 1990, the range consisted of three- and four-cylinder models named after iconic Triumphs of the past: Daytona, Trophy, and Trident. In 1994 the range was expanded by the addition of another model reviving a famous name from the company's past: the Thunderbird, the classic 'retro' styling of which was big hit in the USA. Several Thunderbird variants were produced, Triumph Sport, Legend, and Adventurer, the latter being styled along cruiser lines. Now, a quarter of a century later, these early Hinckley Triumphs are becoming increasingly collectible. This Adventurer was acquired for the collection in January 2004 and currently displays a total of 2,981 miles on the odometer. Last taxed in 2001, the machine is offered with an old-style V5C document and two expired MoTs.
