‘Learn to drive in minutes the AUTOMATIC way! No gears, no clutch: the Triumph T-10 automatic is always in the right gear – automatically.’ Triumph’s advertising certainly went out of its way to ensure that we got the message about the Tina’s ease of use. Introduced in 1962, the ‘twist-’n-go’ Tina was powered by a 100cc two-stroke engine and equipped with variable ratio transmission that employed a ‘V’ belt and expanding pulley rather like that used by Daf. Renamed ‘T-10’ in 1965, the Tina remained in production until mid-1970, never having been the success its makers hoped for despite the admirable commuting credentials of a 40mph top speed and 100mpg fuel consumption. This example of a rarely seen British scooter was purchased in July 2006. Not used since acquisition, the machine is offered with its original logbook, expired MoT (1974), sales receipt and copies of owner’s handbook, parts list and service sheets.
