The Harris Mann-penned TR7 was a major departure from the original TR line. Its overtly wedge-shaped monocoque body was initially only available in Coupe guise, the Convertible variant not being launched until 1980. Power came from a front-mounted 1998cc four-cylinder engine that was effectively an 8-valve version of the proven Dolomite Sprint unit. Its output was 105bhp, which was enough to accelerate the newcomer to 60mph in 9.6 seconds and on to a terminal speed of some 112mph. The powerplant initially drove through a four-speed manual gearbox, though by 1976 this had been replaced with a five-speed one. The suspension was by MacPherson struts and coil springs at the front and a live axle and coil springs at the rear, while braking was by discs/drums and steering by rack and pinion.

First registered in April 1980 and recently subject to a comprehensive restoration, this example is finished in black with gold trim and sports a tan interior with tan vinyl seats with check inserts. It was in previous long term ownership between 1991 and 2016 and benefits from a full length Webasto sunroof. MOT exempt, it is accompanied by a large history file and current Swansea V5C.
