Triumph – Unitary Saloons (from 1963)

The small Triumph was introduced in 1965 as a smaller sibling to the relatively luxurious Triumph 2000, and expected to replace the chassis-based Herald. Herald demand held up for a few years though, and the newer unitary body was repurposed first for a budget Herald replacement, and eventually across the range, up to the pioneering 4 valve per cylinder Sprint.
