In 1959, Triumph launched themselves into the world of scooters with the Tigress. With a Turner designed 250cc, 4-stroke twin engine. Also sold under the BSA-Sunbeam brand, Triumph were not quick to act on sales potential and floundered in the market, even though it was deemed a worthy machine for those who could get one.
This 1960 BSA/Sunbeam Scooter was first registered to Henstocks of Mansfield on the 29th March 1960. It was fully restored in 2000 by a Scooter club member who, in turn, sold it on to fund another project. The restoration has held up well since then. The sale includes a period quaint picnic basket and spare tyre, documents - including a V5C, RF60, an old MOT and the original instruction manual.
