  • Known history from new
  • Pioneer registered machine

Triumph’s renowned 3½hp Model C debuted in 1907 with a 453cc side-valve engine. 1908 saw the engine size increased to 476cc and then to 499cc in 1910. By 1914, it was replaced by the 4hp (550cc) model. During its production, the 1914 range included three other types: a couple of the aforementioned 4hp (550cc) models and a 3½hp (499cc) TT model, the main differences being the type of transmission used.

This 1913 Triumph Model C has seen continuous use over its last 111 years, being first registered in Scotland in 1921, when the new registering service began (the original logbook on file). The first registered owner was from 1921-1966, located in Perth, Scotland. The Triumph has had 7 previous owners from new, with the current owner having purchased it from Verralls in 2018. Reported to have had an engine rebuild around 2012, in the current ownership it has completed a Pioneer Run and comes with its Pioneer Certificate, number 1137. It has not been used in the last couple of years, so it will need some light recommissioning before placing it back on the road. It is offered with a current V5C, its very first RF60 logbook, Bruce Main Smith manuals and parts books.
