Driving: light, lively, sporting

The TR3A is a true driver’s car: low weight, direct steering and a willing four-cylinder that picks up eagerly. Thanks to its wide track, short wheelbase and front disc brakes (advanced for its day), it feels agile, communicative and assured. It’s exactly this sporty, analogue character that made the TR3A a genuine sports car of its era—an engaging machine that could comfortably go toe-to-toe with many German contemporaries, often feeling more alive. This is all about sensation: steer, shift, listen—and grin.

Brief model history

The Triumph TR3A (1957–1962) is the evolved version of the TR3, recognisable by its wider grille and improved trim. It builds on the proven, punchy 2-litre four-cylinder formula and became beloved for its competition success and dependable engineering. With its blend of low mass, strong engine and front disc brakes, the TR3A grew into an icon of the British roadster tradition—a pure classic that still excels on winding roads and touring events today.
