In January 2010, including the 4 cars on the register, there are believed to be 11 Spitfire MK IV Sebring GT hardtops currently surviving worldwide: 5 in England, 3 in Germany, 2 in Denmark, and 1 in France.

The Triumph Spitfire Sebring GT hardtop comes with a detacheable rear panel and extendion for the central fuel filler cap. Rasmus Høyer in Denmark has kindly supplied these detailed close-up pictures of the various components. Rasmus' two original W&P manufactured British racing green Spitfire Sebring GT hardtops are for sale and he is keen for them to go to a good home, as he does not own a Spitfire - contact us for more details.
