  Vintage Triumph Register - VTR
In addition to the items listed in the general Triumph Buyers Guide, there are a number of specific items of interest on the Italia.

 Vintage Triumph Register - VTR
To begin, let me explain that almost all Italia history is open to conjecture, and while doing research for this page, I have found that many sources contridict each other...so take all of this with a grain of salt.
As Triumph struggled through its labor troubles, Ruffino S.p.A., the Italian Triumph import agent at the time, decided to put the car into production, but with a steel body and a relatively standard TR-3A chassis.
The highest serial number I am aware of at this time is #329 (Italias received their own, small Vignale # plate as well as the original TR-3A/B commission plate), although higher numbers have been rumored over the years.

He made his name designing the 1959 Triumph Herald and most of the Triumphs after that up to the seventies.
One of his most beautiful designs was the 1961 Triumph Italia 2000 Coupé, a very rare car that set the lines for the Triumph TR4, TR5 and TR6 sportscar series.
Because of the room the Variomatic transmission took up in the rear and the need of a usable boot, the DAF 44 had to be higher than the Herald and this upset the balance of Michelotti's otherwise sound design.

There was a passing thought that the Triumph TR7 could perhaps be badge engineered as an MG (the ëMagnaí).
Even if it had been made, this car would have been too big to be a Spridget replacement, so when the MG factory closed the British car industry lost its place as a maker of small sports cars.
The next model will be a Triumph Italia (designed by Michelotti, built by Vignale), to be released in 2004.
