The Triumph TR2 was built between 1953 and 1955 by the Triumph Motor Company in the United Kingdom, during which time 8,636 cars were produced.
The car used a twin SU carburetor version of the 1991 cc four cylinder Standard Vanguard engine tuned to increase its output to 90 bhp.
The body was mounted on a substantial separate chassis with coil sprung independent suspension at the front and a leaf spring solid axle at the rear. Either wire or disc wheels could be supplied. The standard transmission was a four speed manual unit but overdrive was available as an option. Lockeed drum brakes were fitted all round.
With the overdrive fitted, the car could reach a maximum speed of 108 mph and return 35 mpg
