We are delighted to offer this charming 1964 Triumph TR4, a highly original UK-supplied right-hand-drive example presented in its desirable factory specification.

Manufactured on 17th August 1964, this TR4 was dispatched on 26th August 1964 to Triumph dealer Lambs Limited of Woodford Green, Essex. Finished from new in Signal Red with a black interior, the car was exceptionally well specified at the factory with options including a heater, sun visors, chrome-plated 60-spoke wire wheels, 165 x 15 Dunlop SP tyres, Surrey Top with hard top, occasional rear seat and windscreen washers. Pleasingly, it still retains its original registration number, FOO 700B.

Today, the car presents beautifully and remains faithful to its original specification. The Signal Red paintwork retains shine, polishing up very well with only minor age-related imperfections commensurate with careful use. The chrome brightwork front and rear is in very good order with an attractive light patina throughout. The freshly refurbished and chrome powder-coated 60-spoke wire wheels are fitted with Continental GT22 165/80/R15 tyres, all showing excellent tread depth and secured with chrome two-eared spinners.

The factory Surrey Top and hard top are finished in body colour and complemented by a white vinyl headlining. The hard top fits well overall, although, as is common with these cars, there is slight gapping around the upper window edges when fully wound up. A canvas soft top with its mounting frame is also included with the car.

Inside, the cabin is wonderfully period in feel and inviting. Black carpets complement the original black leather seats finished with contrasting red piping, matching the door cards beautifully. The original painted red dashboard remains in place and houses the full set of period instruments. Additional features include a 15-inch three-spoke steering wheel, Sony radio and speakers, inertia seat belts and a Triumph leather gear knob.

Under the bonnet, the engine bay is clean and nicely presented. Sensible upgrades have been carried out to improve usability and reliability, including a narrow fan belt conversion, electric cooling fan, alternator conversion and K&N air filters. The car also benefits from a stainless steel exhaust system.

Structurally, the TR4 is strong, with both body and chassis presenting in good order. The chassis has recently been cleaned and freshly undersealed.

Mechanically, the car performs exactly as a good TR4 should. It starts eagerly from cold, maintains excellent oil pressure and pulls strongly through the gears. The gearbox shifts smoothly, the overdrive operates correctly and the car feels lively and robust on the road, accompanied by the unmistakable soundtrack of the Triumph four-cylinder engine.

Buying a Classic Vehicle from The Forge:

At The Forge, we specialise in classic, vintage and enthusiast vehicles. Every vehicle we sell is unique, with its own history, character and imperfections. Unlike modern vehicles, classic cars require a different level of ownership, maintenance and understanding.

We pride ourselves on providing honest, detailed vehicle descriptions, extensive photography and videos, enabling prospective purchasers to make an informed buying decision.


No Commercial Warranty:

Unless expressly stated otherwise in writing, vehicles sold by The Forge are not supplied with a commercial warranty or guarantee.

This reflects the age, originality and individual nature of the vehicles we sell. Mechanical components on older vehicles are subject to wear, and future maintenance and repairs should be expected as part of classic vehicle ownership.

For customers who would like additional peace of mind, an optional third-party mechanical warranty is available, subject to vehicle eligibility and the warranty provider's terms and conditions. Please contact us before purchase if you would like further information or a quotation.

Nothing in this statement affects your statutory rights.


Vehicle Descriptions:

Every vehicle is individually assessed and described as accurately and honestly as possible.

Our detailed advertisements, photographs and videos form an important part of the sales information and are intended to provide a fair and comprehensive representation of each vehicle at the time of sale.

We encourage all prospective purchasers to read the full advertisement carefully, review all photographs and videos, and contact us with any questions before committing to purchase.

Due to the age of many vehicles, cosmetic wear, minor oil leaks, ageing components, historical repairs, non-original parts and general signs of use should be expected unless otherwise stated.


Viewings, Test Drives & Independent Inspections:

All viewings are strictly by appointment.

We warmly welcome personal inspections, independent inspections and, where appropriate, accompanied test drives by prior arrangement.

Full access to our in-house vehicle lift is available, allowing prospective purchasers or their appointed specialist to inspect the vehicle both above and below.

We strongly encourage every customer to inspect the vehicle personally, or commission an independent inspection, before completing their purchase.


Accuracy of Information:

Whilst every effort is made to ensure that all descriptions, specifications and information are accurate, they are intended as a guide only and are based on the information available to us at the time of advertising.

Prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves as to the vehicle's condition, originality, specification and suitability before purchase. We are always happy to answer questions or provide additional photographs and videos where possible.


Vehicle Transportation:

We can arrange delivery throughout the United Kingdom and Europe using carefully selected specialist vehicle transport partners. Please contact us for a quotation.


Servicing & Restoration:

Whilst The Forge does not undertake vehicle restoration work, we are pleased to recommend trusted specialists with whom we work closely for servicing, restoration and other specialist requirements.


Our Commitment:

Our reputation is built on honesty, transparency and a genuine passion for classic vehicles. We believe in representing our vehicles accurately, encouraging thorough inspections and ensuring every customer has the information they need to make an informed purchasing decision.

If you require additional photographs, videos or further information about any vehicle, we will always be happy to assist before you buy.


Please Read Before Purchasing:

The vehicle advertisement, together with its photographs and videos, forms an important part of the information provided about the vehicle. Please read the description carefully and ensure you are satisfied with the vehicle's condition, specification and characteristics before purchase.

If you have any questions, require clarification on any aspect of the vehicle or wish to arrange an inspection, we encourage you to contact us prior to committing to buy.
