Two Spitfires
'Like your first love, you'll never forget your first Spitfire'.
You not only get a car and a girl, but a piece of history.
Quite a nice video, clearly aimed at the North American market, with clever and almost convincing cuts between the cockpits of Supermarine Spitfire and Triumph Spitfire.

Spitfire in red
What a lovely car (red Mk3), equally lovely girl, but what's that bloke doing in this ad?
Apparently, this commercial tries to advertise the 'pulling power' (ahem...) of the Spit.

A National Racing Champion car
Another funny TV ad about a national racing champion sports car that has no need to prove itself.

.87 g-force?
Again a lovely girl and a lovely car, in yet another funny, understated TV commercial for the North American market. No wonder the Spitfire sold so well Stateside. This commercial enthuses about the Spitfire's cornering ability, which was quite good once the design of transverse rear spring had been redone properly.

Two guys, two Spitfires, one girl ...
Very British voice-over in a split-screen American TV-ad, aimed at prospective male Spitfire owners of all ages. Bottom line: get one!

Animals with Triumph Spitfire and TR6
By the mid-seventies, open sportscars were indeed becoming an endangered species and many car producers had already stopped making them, believing they would soon be outlawed. The endangered species in this ad are elephants, tigers, zebra's and triumphs.

MG and Triumph
A Triumph Spitfire , a rubber-bumpered MG B and an MG Midget with a Spitfire engine, all in one TV ad.
What a sad mistake. But a lovely and very symbolic sunset at the end.

Crash test of a Triumph Spitfire
This is the only way you ever want to see a Spitfire crash. Unique footage of a Spitfire crashing, with even a view of the underside as it folds up.
We believe EuroNCAP would award it at least 5 stars...

Commercial video Triumph Spitfire
Nice video; informative and educative.
Some of the movies on this page were taken from this video. This video (in PAL format only) is still available from the Triumph Sports Six Club in England. |
