1982 Triumph TR7 Coupe

Just 42,000 miles from new; recent water pump; a smart example with a Webasto roof and an MOT until April 2022

Until 1991, this 1982 TR7 was leading a normal life. Supplied new by Parkside Motors in Coventry, a string of six old MOTs showed a regular accumulation of mileage to 40,310 miles by February 1991.

During the following year, the car was put into storage, where it was to remain until our vendor acquired it from a deceased estate in January 2020. The V5c records four previous keepers.

Remaining in highly original condition, the car was given due care and attention during the recommissioning, including a new water pump and a respray. It is now very presnetable and sound underneath with a particuarly jazzy hounds-tooth interior and working Webasto sunroof.

It has subsequently been MOTd, which expires in April 2022 and shows no advisories and the plastic bookpack includes a handbook and service book which lists its first and only stamped service in December 1982 at 1,961 miles.

TR7s have suddenly become fashionable again after a time in the doldrums - especially in coupe form. There seems to be a growing appreciation of BL products from this era, which have been talked-down by the media for too long, especially when one considers what everyone else was up to in the early '80s!
