Classic Car Overview
Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is proud to present this 1980 Triumph TR8, a sleek British roadster that blends classic styling with V8 performance. Finished in a sharp silver exterior, this TR8 carries a clean, timeless look that pairs perfectly with its sporty character and low-slung stance.
Inside, youll find a navy blue cloth interior that offers a comfortable and inviting driving environment. The cabin keeps things simple and driver-focused, staying true to the spirit of classic European sports cars. Equipped with an AM/FM radio, you can enjoy your favorite tunes while taking in the open road.
Under the hood lies the heart of this machine-a 3.5L V8 engine paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. This combination delivers an engaging driving experience with plenty of power on tap and the kind of control that enthusiasts appreciate. Notably, this TR8 has been converted from fuel injection to a carburetor setup, offering a more traditional and easily tunable approach to performance.
This example comes with extensive service records dating back to 2013 and earlier, providing valuable insight into the care and maintenance it has received over the years-something collectors and drivers alike will appreciate.
Riding on alloy wheels and featuring a manual convertible top, this TR8 is ready for top-down cruising whenever the mood strikes. Its a unique opportunity to own a V8-powered British convertible that stands out from the crowd, delivering both character and performance in one stylish package.
