In the second part of our history of the TR4, we look at the 1968-1976 Triumph TR5 PI, TR250, and TR6.

Some 'Italian' Triumphs shows the badge of the Ducati Meccanica on the trunk, arousing the curiosity of those who admire them and giving rise to urban legends about the assemblies of vehicles that might have taken place in Italy.
