Verkäuferkommentare zu 1961' Triumph TR3

L'Atelier des 1000 is delighted to offer this Triumph TR3 for sale, finished in an elegant white over a black interior with a matching hood. Introduced in 1955, the TR3 marked a significant evolution of Triumph's roadster range. Succeeding the TR2, it kept the lines that made that model a success while benefiting from numerous mechanical improvements, notably a more powerful engine and, from 1956, front disc brakes, a feature still rare on a mass-production car of that era. Built until 1962, with more than 74, 000 examples produced, the TR3 quickly established itself as one of the most capable British roadsters of its time. Equally at home on long touring drives or in competition, it took part in many international events, among them the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Monte Carlo Rally and the Mille Miglia, greatly contributing to Triumph's sporting reputation. Thanks to its light weight, robust 2. 0-litre four-cylinder engine and sharp chassis, the TR3 still offers a particularly authentic driving experience today. Its direct responses, quintessentially British driving position and generous torque make it one of the most endearing roadsters of the 1950s. Our car is a 1959 model. It has remained in the same family since 2011. Following an inheritance, we are now assisting the family with the sale of the car. A substantial file of invoices and documentation accompanies the car. As part of its preparation for sale, around EUR 10, 000 of work was carried out in 2026 to offer a sound car ready for the road. The engine runs very well and starts without noise or smoke. It pulls strongly through the rev range and shows good tuning. The fuel pump is new, while the ignition was overhauled a few years ago and converted to electronic ignition. The gearbox works very well and offers smooth, slick gear changes. It was drained this year and its mounting has been replaced. The overdrive has also been replaced. It works perfectly and makes a real difference to comfort on the road. The clutch is new, as is its release bearing. The chassis retains all the dynamism that built the TR3's reputation. Its direct steering and light weight deliver a lively and engaging drive. The running gear is healthy and shows no abnormal play. The braking system has been completely renewed, including new front calipers, master cylinder and rear brakes. The chrome wire wheels are gleaming and shod with recent Vredestein tyres in good condition. The bodywork is in excellent condition. This TR3 received a full repaint in 2011, and the quality of that work is still evident today. Fifteen years on, the paint retains an even, beautiful shine with a light patina of use and a few isolated stone chips, which in no way detract from the car's overall presentation. The chrome is in perfect condition. The cabin is presented to a high standard; the seats are in very good condition, and the foam and trim show no signs of wear. The Bakelite steering wheel is in very good condition. The wooden dashboard is in perfect condition. The instruments and controls all work and retain the authentic atmosphere that gives 1950s British roadsters their charm. The black hood is in perfect condition. The car also comes with a tonneau cover and side screens. Trade-ins and part exchanges considered. MOT: OK. Delivery possible throughout Europe. French carte grise with historic vehicle status. Warranty available for up to 36 months. L'Atelier des 1000 specialises in buying and selling European sports cars and classics. For more information or to view our stock, visit our website.
