- Long famed for their rugged reliability and idiosyncratic good looks, the 'side screen' TRs have attracted a fanatical following over the years
- The final evolution of the Triumph TR2/TR3 sportscar line, the TR3A was introduced in September 1957. It was never officially badged as such and was, in fact, a minor revision of the TR3 with updates including a new wide grille, exterior door handles, lockable boot and a full tool kit
- Great fun to drive, its tough box-section chassis featured independent coil and wishbone front suspension, a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle and disc/drum brakes
- Fitted with a 1,991cc four-cylinder OHV unit developing around 104bhp and 117lb/ft of torque, it was reputedly capable of 110mph. A great sales success on both sides of the Atlantic, the model provided a rather more visceral alternative to its MG and Jaguar competition
- Finished in Primrose Yellow with blue leather, this TR presents in highly original order throughout, retaining its character and factory specification, and forming part of a private collection in recent years
- Showing just under 44,000 miles from new, supported by an extensive history file and detailed record of ownership, the car has been carefully maintained by a private mechanic, reflecting attentive custodianship over the decades
- Supplied with a substantial history file, including invoices, period documentation and ownership records, this well preserved TR3A represents an appealing opportunity to acquire an original example with modest mileage and established provenance
