Why Triumph's Spitfire was almost NEVER MADE

The Spitfire is a beautiful automobile, a thing of wonder penned by an Italian genius, but it almost never happened.

But Triumph produced a car that still inspires new creations today and has a strong and loyal fan base around the world, nearly sixty years since it burst on the scene.
