TR3A very well presented and particularly attractive
A plus
The TR3 takes the elegant lines and capabilities of the TR2 and improves on them, thanks in particular to the increased power extracted from its pleasant 2L Standard-Triumph engine. The 'A' version adds a few cosmetic touches and an improved braking system.
These cars are an excellent alternative to the more common 50s and 60s roadsters, especially when they are in such remarkable condition as this one. It comes in a magnificent rare shade of light blue, the result of a restoration carried out 6,300 km ago, including an engine rebuild. Its overall condition testifies to the care taken by its current owner.
More recently, it has benefited from a new black interior with white piping. It has a roadworthiness certificate valid until February 2027, and the seller informs us that all the comments made have been corrected.
This is a truly charming and attractive TR3A. Perfect for events and rallies, but also simply for the pleasure of light driving... or the pleasure of admiring it in your garage.IMG_9328 Grande THILLE.jpeg562.57 KB
