Model History – Triumph TR4A:
The TR4A was introduced in 1965 as the successor to the popular TR4, with key improvements including independent rear suspension (IRS) for vastly improved ride and handling. The torquey 2. 1L engine, paired with its light chassis and iconic styling, makes this a highly desirable 60s British sports car — especially in restored condition.
