LumiukkoWer in #Berlin mal eine richtige Zumutung an einer #Fahrrad Tangentialroute sehen will, der kann sich mal die #TR7 (Hohenschönhausen-Köpenick) auf Abschnitt #Sterckmannweg anschauen. Das is doch wohl ein Witz...

David WilkinsToday, we move on from yesterday’s #Triumph #TR4 to the 1969 #TR6, the final development of the traditional TR line before the clean-sheet #TR7 appeared. By now the car had acquired independent rear suspension and a straight-six engine. In one of the unlikeliest automotive tie-ups of all time, the updated front and rear bodywork of this most British of cars was developed by #Karmann of Germany. The bulk of these were sold in the USA. Pic: #BritishMotorMuseum. #WeirdCarMastodon #davidsdailycar
Just to give you an idea of how far the #Triumph #TR7 I featured yesterday departed from established notions of the traditional British sports car, here is one of its predecessors in the TR line, the hairy-chested TR4, seen in a fetching British Racing Green at #TechnoClassica 2023. The #TR4 inherited most of its mechanical parts, including an engine shared with the #Ferguson TE20 tractor, from previous TRs but wrapped these in restyled bodywork by #Michelotti. #WeirdCarMastodon #davidsdailycar
The design of the TR7 was controversial at the time but I think it stands up well today. The TR7 story is one of missed opportunities. Supply was disrupted by two factory moves, and the V8 engine option and convertible (the feared US rules against open-topped cars never materialised) came too late to save it. As the Broadside and Lynx prototypes I previously featured showed, the #TR7 had considerable potential for development that was never really exploited. Pic: #BritishMotorMuseum 2013 2/2
Today, the never-produced Broadside, a #BritishLeyland evolution of/planned replacement for the #Triumph #TR7. The wheelbase was lengthened and the doors have a similar ‘scalloped’ design to those on the #Maestro and the #Lynx hatch featured a few days ago. Snapped at the #BritishMotorMuseum. The fourth pic, a production fixed head TR7, is included for comparison purposes (photo #BMM car park, 2013). #WeirdCarMastodon #davidsdailycar
