The Secret Life Of A TR3A
We can all enjoy our car in the present,but it pays never to forget that each and every one of them has a past.
Is This My Best Side...?
Peter Howard’s Vitessehas a track record of TV appearances,but when a car looks this good, then you can forgive it from having something of a love affair with the camera.
Spitfire Dick II –The Customer's Tale
In 2010 we visited the 90-year-old Spitfire Dick, who had bought, sold, scrapped, restored and thoroughly enjoyed 50 Triumph Spitfires and GT6s, rescuing and re-homing as many of them as he could. Now we return to get the story behind one of those cars.
Gloria Six Vitesse Saloon Opportunity
It scarcely seems possible, but it was all the way back in the February/March 2013 issue that we featured Martin Johnson-Howe’s beautiful 1935 Gloria six-cylinder Vitesse saloon, BXP 267.

Saxondale Strada Revived
A rare example of a sports car styled by Harris Mann while ‘moonlighting’ from his day job at British Leyland is now being restored from scrap condition in Norfolk.
All My Own Work

Back To Basics
If the TR6 on p28 is a time capsule showing how Triumph built their cars in 1970, Kevin Peters’ careworn TR2 is a glorious time capsule back to the 1960s, a time when slightly down-at-heel side screen TRs could be picked up for relative pennies. We doubt that any impecunious student of that era would have had more fun from their car than Kevin and fellow Wensum Group member Chris Loynes derive from their TRs today. We met up with them to find out just why this one is so special.
The 500cc TRW
Designed in the 1940s for military use, Triumph’s TRW side-valver makes a great workhorse.
