Jay Leno bids on a Supercharged Triumph TR6 on Bring A Trailer auction (HTGOSG#4)

The Drivers Talk crew pays a visit to Jay Leno’s Garage, and Jay bids on a rare, supercharged, 1972 Triumph TR6 on Bring A Trailer. Plus watch the results of last week's Alfa Romeo Montreal auction and see who’s taking a whif of petrol.

Jay Leno has this car. Alpha Montreal. 🤑I've seen one on his show.😎 That TR6 is my favorite British sports car.👍😝

The official color for an earlier TR6 is Laurel Green- for… BRG.

[@GmaninLA]

This is a damn nice TR6! Albeit no front bumper, but that is easily fixed. Plus this thing is supercharged and puts a LOT MORE zip in the TR6 and lets it run with modern cars.

[@edkonstantellis9094]

True on the "zip"
That zip and the butchered front end leaves a bunch of takeaway from the original car.
Notwithstanding the zip and possible customised to previous owner(s's) personal preferences. What remains of the vehicles provenance?
Who is to know?

Here is a little info on many of the repainted Green British Sports Cars we all think of them as British Racing Green but in many cases people are saving some money by buying Farm Implement Green from Tractor Supply which happens to be very close but much less expensive it’s honestly fooled me twice and I’ve owned 6 British cars over the years and have been to many British car shows as well

[@richardhall9500]

There's really only ONE pure BRG and it is almost black. I've seen many cars with various shades of green and their owners like to think they are BRG. Sorry to disappoint guys.

[@jeffhildreth9244]

Historically there are 3 British Racing greens, and no, they are not "almost black", nowhere near it.

[@bobadams179]

Soooo..... What did the TR6 sell for?

[@DriversTalk]

It's revealed in HTGOSG #5, which is right here: th-cam.com/video/OHFhgoo0tdc/w-d-xo.html

They can sniff the elvis impersonators fart gas.

[@ulbruce]

Very disappointing. It most mostly about the Alfa Romeo and the never gave us the price on the car. I'm in the market for my 4th TR6, and it's something I'd like to know...

[@corylwillrise]

Yeah they were British racing green. Not sure why jay leno would make that up.

Who is the creep with the dark hair ? Ruined the video.
