The Triumph spent many years in a large private collection in Dublin before its purchase by the vendor four years ago. Overdrive, wire wheels, a stainless steel exhaust, and full weather equipment are notable features of a car that has had only four owners and 49,000 miles from new. This original UK-delivered TR3A comes with a Heritage Certificate confirming its matching numbers and the original registration number. New front-end styling featured a full-width grille incorporating sidelights/indicators, and for the first time there were locking door and boot handles plus an improved interior. Cosmetically revised but mechanically indistinguishable, the TR3A was phased in during 1957.
By mid-1956 the engine developed 100bhp courtesy of a new cylinder head then, in August, Girling front disc brakes and the stronger Phase III Vanguard rear axle were standardised. Introduced in October 1955, the TR3 was indeed little different from the TR2 changes to the Standard Vanguard-derived 2.0-litre engine boosted power from 90 to 95bhp but the most obvious difference was the adoption of an 'egg box' radiator grille.
