        Hallo, der Spitfire ist zwar sehr individuell, aber das Rallye-Design gefällt mir ganz gut. Jedoch eine Frage: Sind die England-Flagge auf dem Kofferraum und die Streifen auf den Kotflüglen wieder entfernbar oder wurde das lackiert? Liebe Grüße Florian

          Technik: Der Triumph Spitfire 1500, eingeführt Ende 1974, ist die letzte Evolutionsstufe dieses beliebten britischen Roadsters, erkennbar am größeren 1493 cm³ Vierzylinder-Motor mit 71 PS, einem Bugspoiler und Verdeckabdeckung, der für mehr Leistung und verbesserte Optik sorgte, eine Höchstgeschwindigkeit von ca. 160 km/h erreichte und heute ein gefragter, erschwinglicher Klassiker ist.
