Further info:

Codenamed 'Zest', the TR4 was introduced in 1961. Though based on the chassis and drivetrain of its much-loved TR3A predecessor, the newcomer cut a far more modern dash thanks to its all-new Michelotti-styled body. Power was provided by Triumph's proven 2138cc OHV four-cylinder engine while mechanical updates included a wider track front and rear, rack and pinion steering and all-synchromesh gearbox. The optional overdrive now operated on second and third gears as well as top. The final iteration of the TR4 was the TR4A, introduced in 1965. This embodied a number of small styling changes and upgrades to the specification but, more pertinently, some 75 percent of TR4As were equipped with independent rear suspension (IRS). The right-hand drive, 'home market' TR4A on offer is one of these desirable IRS cars. Built in 1966, it is finished in Red with Black leather upholstery. Having been in the current ownership since 2002 and previously subject to self-evident restoration work, 'LGC 315D' is offered with history file and V5C document.
