Footnotes

Stylish, fast and practical, the Stag began life as a Triumph 2000-based styling exercise by Italian maestro Giovanni Michelotti. A 2+2 convertible, Michelotti's design featured a quad-lamp grille and sculpted front and rear ends, the latter destined to appear on many future Triumphs. By the time production commenced in 1970, the 2000's six-cylinder engine had been replaced by a 3-litre V8 based on an overhead-camshaft four - later to power the Dolomite range - already being produced by Triumph for SAAB. A padded, 'T'-shaped roll bar bracing the door pillars and windscreen was one of the Stag's most distinctive features, and the model could also be had in soft-top, hardtop, or soft-with-hardtop forms. Motor Sport described the Stag's interior as, "well appointed, having all the usual instrumentation one would expect in a high performance car".

The left-hand drive, automatic transmission Stag we offer was delivered new to the USA, remaining there for several years before returning to the UK where it was first registered to Mr Stephen Ottley of Oxfordshire on 5th April 2012. It appears that Mr Ottley kept the Stag for only a couple of years before it was sold to the vendor via the Triumph Stag Shop of Alvechurch, Worcestershire on 23rd October 2015. It has since been on static display and will require recommissioning prior to road use.

Accompanying documentation consists of a UK MoT certificate (expired 2016); a UK V5C Registration Certificate; and a copy of the 2015 purchase invoice.
