| A fast, stylish, comfortable, well appointed GT, the Stag never quite managed to shake off its early reputation for unreliability and suffered in sales terms as a result, especially in the export markets it had originally been designed for. Its unique 3-litre OHC 145bhp V8 engine was also costly and expensive to build as it complicated the production line of Triumph's slant four OHC to which it was related. Only 25,877 Stags were built in seven years of production. |
