Below are links to a large number of scans of original Triumph Spitfire sales literature. Most of these were acquired at various rallies and exhibitions by myself and my good friend Jacob Poortstra, who owns a mint '79 Spitfire 1500.

1962 Triumph Spitfire 4 sales brochure

1962 Triumph Spitfire 4 sales brochure

As far as I know, the first Triumph Spitfire sales brochure ever. contains a very nice center spread. Five scans.
Early Triumph Spitfire MkIII Dutch Brochure

1967 Triumph Spitfire Mk3 Brochure (NL)

A very early Mk3 Spitfire sales brochure in Dutch. With famous picture on the front, and bad translation throughout. Eight pages.
1973 Triumph Spitfire MkIV sales brochure

1973 Triumph Spitfire MkIV sales brochure

Wild 70's colours outside, but tasteful pictures within. Twelve pages - ten scans.

This is probably another translated UK brochure. Twelve pages, nine scans.
1974 Triumph Spitfire B/W Brochure (UK)

1974 Triumph Spitfire B/W Brochure (UK)

Very early British brochure in black and white. Simple, informative. Four pages, four scans.
1974 Triumph Spitfire B/W Brochure (NL)

1974 Triumph Spitfire B/W Brochure (NL)

The same early 1500 brochure in black and white, but translated almost literally to Dutch. Also four pages, four scans.
1975 Triumph Spitfire Colour Brochure (UK)

1975 Triumph Spitfire Colour Brochure (UK)

Very nice early British brochure, this time in colour. Lots of photograps and plenty of marketing blurb. Twelve pages and twelve scans.
1977 German brochure

1977 German brochure

This seems to be a uniquely German production. I have never seen it in another language.
Thanks to Michael Walk, who sent me the scans.
Circa 1978 Dutch Triumph Spitfire Brochure

Circa 1978 Dutch Triumph Spitfire Brochure

The Dutch market was only moderately important to BL and must barely have justified its own brochures. There is also a Flemish version of this one. It boasts slightly different texts and strangely, every picture in it is very slightly (in some cases almost imperceptably) different. Six scans.
1980 Triumph Spitfire Colour Brochure (UK)

1980 Triumph Spitfire Colour Brochure (UK)

In the last year of Spitfire production, BL splashed out on one of the nicest brochures in the series. Good, professional photography on a dreary day. Twelve pages and scans.

Bonus picture of half-naked Spitfire

Transparent view of late Spitfire MkIV, with 1500 front spoiler and bolt-on wire wheels. Showing all the oily bits - yummy! (178 KB)
