A 1954 Triumph TR2. This one owner car has covered a very low mileage and was laid up when the crankshaft broke. After 30 years of storage in Devon, it has been completely restored. The Triumph TR2 was designed very quickly in the early 1950's to try and rival the MG TD and the Jaguar XK120. It uses a modified Standard Vanguard engine. It had tremendous success especially in export markets. The Triumph TR series continued until the TR8 was axed in 1981.
