The Appeal
Post-war sports car enthusiasts were in for a real treat with the TR3. Elegant design, light and agile handling and a responsive 2-litre engine made Triumph a characterful alternative to British and continental rivals.
Here's your chance to discover a vehicle that caused such a stir at the time. Completely rebuilt in 2023, this 1960 Triumph is undoubtedly very close to a new example of the model, 65 years after it left the factory. The work covered mechanicals, bodywork and interior, and it is finished in a classic mix of pure white with burgundy leather trim.
Other improvements include a stainless steel exhaust to improve sound and an overdrive unit on the gearbox to make long-distance journeys more relaxing.
The car is sold with a roadworthiness certificate valid until March 2027, but you don't need this guarantee to appreciate the quality of this TR3A.
