The Appeal

The Triumph TR4A IRS represents a meaningful evolution of the Michelotti-penned TR4, distinguished by its independent rear suspension setup that brought improved handling and ride quality to the marque's sports car range. Powered by a willing 2,138cc four-cylinder engine and paired with a four-speed manual gearbox, the TR4A remains a thoroughly engaging classic to drive and one that continues to command a loyal following among British sports car enthusiasts.

This 1967 example has been in the hands of its current keeper since late 2012, during which time considerable investment has been made in its upkeep. The history file documents a wide range of mechanical and cosmetic work over the years, and having been UK-registered from new, it offers straightforward provenance. The car has recently passed a voluntary MOT with no advisories and presents as an appealing example of this well-regarded British sports car.
