Triumph was a well-known British sports car maker for decades. The cars were made by the Standard Motor Company of Coventry, and they offered enthusiastic buyers the typical British roadster experience of the wind in your hair and a pert little sports car to hustle around country roads. Naturally, Americans would get to experience these cars too, as evidenced by this 1962 Triumph TR3A that’s for sale right now. The car reportedly underwent a frame-off restoration in 2015, making it nice and fresh for its new owner to enjoy.

Kept in pristine condition, this car is ready to stretch its legs having covered a reported 53,208 miles in its 36-year life. With the name having been around for 70 years, it's safe to assume that Mercedes knows what they’re doing.
