1975 Triumph Stag | Great Notley, Essex

A 1975 Triumph Stag, the British four-seat convertible built around a 3.0-litre V8. It is known for relaxed grand touring and for a T-bar roof structure that is part of its look, and a Stag appears in the Bond film Diamonds Are Forever. This car is blue with a black interior, a simple pairing that reads cleanly on camera. The T-bar links the windscreen frame to a hoop behind the seats, so with the roof down the open cabin stays framed and the silhouette stays distinctive. Four people sit in that open cabin. Period film and television work suits it, as the 1970s lines place a scene in the decade straight away. Photography, fashion and editorial shoots and music videos gain from the open top, which keeps people in clear view. It also makes a relaxed car for a wedding or a day out. The car is based in Great Notley, Essex.
