Here at Oxford, we are pleased to introduce another newly tooled iconic British sports car from the 1960s in the shape of the Triumph TR4. For its debut, it comes with its hood down in bright red with black interior, finely detailed tan dashboard with black dials and black tonneau cover. Registered ESB 581B from 1964, the fine detailing extends to the wire wheels, with a silver finish given to windscreen wipers, door handles and bumpers. The Triumph name and distinctive coloured badge are faithfully replicated on the front of the bonnet with the model type also printed in silver across the boot. The Triumph TR4 was produced by the Triumph Motor Company between 1961 and 1965, during which time over 40,000 rolled off the production line, with assembly both in the UK and Australia. Designed by Giovanni Michelotti, it comprised a 2-door roadster with a 4-speed full-synchromesh manual gear box, a top speed of 110 mph and a 2138cc engine. Improvements over its predecessor, the TR3A, included wind-down windows and an angular rear which gave considerably more boot capacity. An optional electrically operated overdrive could be selected for second and third gears as well as fourth, which effectively provided the TR4 with a sevenspeed manual close ratio gearbox. When it was launched in 1961, the TR4 cost £1095 and did 22.5 miles to the gallon. The TR4 was extremely popular in America and also did very well on the race track, so there is much scope for many more exciting liveries to come on this superb new 1:76 scale model.
