Triumph TR5 TR250 IRS overdrive, fully restored condition, 9.591 miles a 1968
General description :
Exported to the Netherlands some 30 years ago, it has only had two owners since. The IRS represents the top of the TR range with independent rear suspension and overdrive. ThisTR250 was fully restored and mechanically overhauled. Since then it has only travelled a further 9,500 miles. The fact it is still in a top quality condition is down to high quality of the restoration and the excellent maintenance. The fantastic bodywork is straight with perfect fitting body panels. The decorative chrome parts and paintwork are as good as new. The rust-free underbody certainly leaves no room for concern. The wonderful wooden dashboard and the beige piped black leather interior trim have been perfectly maintained. The matching soft-top is also as good as new. Besides the independent rear suspension and overdrive, this TR250 also sports a chrome luggage rack and chrome wire wheels. Gallery Aaldering is Europe’s leading Classic Cars specialist since 1975!

About Triumph
Triumph, a name synonymous with classic sports cars and innovative designs, has a rich and storied history in the automotive world.The Triumph story began in the late 19th century when the company originally produced bicycles and then expanded into motorcycles. However, it was in the 1920s that Triumph ventured into the production of automobiles. Over the years, Triumph became renowned for its high-quality vehicles that combined performance with style.
One of Triumph's most iconic models was the TR3, introduced in the late 1950s. It was a classic British sports car, loved for its simple yet elegant design and thrilling driving experience. The TR3 was a symbol of affordable sports car enjoyment, and it set the stage for a series of successful TR models, including the TR4, TR5, and TR6.
In addition to sports cars, Triumph made a name for itself with Michelotti-designed sedans. The Triumph Herald, introduced in the early 1960s, was a compact family car that boasted stylish design and solid engineering. Later on, the Triumph 2000 and 2500 sedans catered to a more upscale market and earned a reputation for their comfortable rides and elegant looks.
However, despite its successes, Triumph faced numerous challenges over the years, including financial difficulties and ownership changes. In the 1980s, British Leyland, the company that owned Triumph, underwent significant restructuring, and the Triumph brand was gradually phased out.
The demise of Triumph was indeed sad and, to some extent, disgraceful. The company that had produced beloved sports cars and well-regarded sedans was slowly fading away. In 1984, the last Triumph-badged car rolled off the production line, marking the end of an era.
Although the Triumph name disappeared, its legacy lives on. Enthusiasts and collectors continue to cherish classic Triumph sports cars like the TR3, TR6, and Spitfire, as well as the unique charm of Triumph sedans. Triumph remains a symbol of British automotive heritage and the enduring appeal of classic sports cars.
In conclusion, Triumph's history is a blend of classic sports car excellence and innovative sedan design. Its sad and disgraceful demise serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by many automakers over the years, but the spirit of Triumph lives on in the hearts of automotive enthusiasts around the world.
