The Appeal
Produced from 1955, the Triumph TR3 was the first mass-produced British car to feature disc brakes as standard, an accolade often erroneously attributed to Jaguar. Ever since its launch, the TR3 has been popular for hill climbing and sprint events, beloved for its nimble handling and spritely performance.
This 1956 UK home market right-hand drive example comes with a history file evidencing care by C.T.M. Engineering Ltd, a recognised Triumph TR specialist. Documented work includes a mechanical overhaul encompassing chassis, steering, and engine components, along with subsequent brake and clutch system renewal, steering box servicing, and front suspension maintenance. Further historical invoices from Sparshatts of Botley Unipart confirm a supply of genuine replacement parts and service consumables over the years. With over £4,600 of recorded specialist expenditure, this TR3 offers a reassuring paper trail for its next custodian.
The car is resplendent in red, with a matching red interior and a smart set of Minilite-type alloy wheels. It also has overdrive fitted, making this car usable on the road, even seventy years on.image.png1.12 MB
