No, not the airborne Spitfire. The itsy bitsy Triumph version.
Your chance to wake a piece of automotive madness from a 13 year slumber.

Not only a V12, but a supercharged V12.
I wonder what the story is behind that shop where it's sitting. Seems to have been a lot of work going on in there, and then.... nothing.
Ivor
Love it!!
Not just supercharged but with twin superchargers! (Didn't see anything remotely resembling an intercooler however)
Looks like a Sunday Driver to me. (he, he, he)
Jim
Wow!
Just when I thought that it couldn't get any harder to change the plugs on a V12.
Impressive engineering to get all that under the hood.
Live like you mean it.
Fred
Yeehaw!
Reminds me of the Bill Thgomas Cheetah with the exhaust headers running across the top of the driver's legs... OK for 1/4 mile drags, but waaay too hot for road courses & long races. ( look up CroSal special -
a Cheetah coupe turned into a roadster to keep the driver from roasting).
Just because an engineer CAN do it, doesn't make it a great idea !
Doug
Sold for £3,000.
Hope we might one day see it in action.
