Description
Full £5,000 repaint and
colour change in 2016; First registered in January 1952; starting and driving as
expected while on site
This charming and increasingly scarce 1952
Triumph Renown TDB is a fine example of post-war British motoring presented in
appealing and usable condition. First registered in January 1952, this elegant
saloon is understood to have had just three former keepers, suggesting a life of
careful stewardship.
Finished in an attractive light metallic blue over
ivory white, the car displays the graceful lines for which the Renown is known.
The exterior colour scheme is complemented beautifully by a beige leather
interior and traditional wood trim, creating a warm and authentically period
cabin environment. Power is supplied by the 2088cc petrol engine paired with a
manual transmission, offering the smooth, unhurried driving experience expected
of the model.
Importantly, the car is accompanied by its original Buff
Logbook, a desirable piece of historical documentation that adds to the
vehicle’s provenance. Also present are a number of invoices, notably including
documentation for a £5,000 repaint carried out in 2016, which contributes to the
car’s smart overall presentation today.
While on site for photography and
a short video, the Triumph was observed starting, stopping and running as
expected, giving confidence in its general mechanical manners. Altogether, this
well-presented Renown represents an appealing opportunity for the enthusiast
seeking an honest, usable example of this characterful British saloon, equally
suited to gentle touring, classic events, or addition to a discerning
collection.
