1968 Triumph TR5 Cabriolet Red in 1:43 scale
This is the 1968 Triumph TR5 Cabriolet Red in 1:43 scale by Matrix.
The 1968 Triumph TR5 Cabriolet was a landmark British sports car that uniquely combined classic roadster charm with cutting-edge technology for its time. What set it apart was its use of a 2.5-liter inline-six engine with Lucas mechanical fuel injection—making it one of the first production sports cars in Europe to feature fuel injection, delivering 150 horsepower and significantly improved performance over carbureted rivals. With its sleek Michelotti-styled body and lively handling, the TR5 offered a spirited driving experience that blended innovation, style, and open-top enjoyment in a way few contemporaries could match.
Excellent quality and finish. Beautifully crafted and exquisitely detailed. Models are hand
painted, decorated and assembled. Beautiful detail and accuracy of shape and scale. Photo
etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are also used. Each model
comes with its own acrylic display case.
