1959 Triumph TR3

This is a photograph I took in May this year when I was returning home after doing a bit of shopping in Hyde and I saw this car coming towards me.

It's a 1959 Triumph TR3, a car sometimes known as a TR3A because the wider grille on the later models make it look a different vehicle than the original TR3. The original Triumph TR3 was produced between 1955 and 1957 with a 1,991cc straight-4 engine, and later versions from 1957 to 1962 with the 1,991cc engine, but with the option of a 2,138cc engine from 1959. This car has the larger engine.
