AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
EXTERIOR
General condition: Superb presentation, bodywork sound with no visible rust spots.
History & Chassis: Vehicle purchased in 2022 from a Norman body shop that completely rebuilt the rocker panels. The chassis is fully treated with Blackson for optimal long-term protection.
Aesthetics: It embodies all the purity and beauty of the TR4 lines, enhanced by its true sporty cabriolet style that leaves no one indifferent. A particularly flashy and value-enhancing car.
MECANIQUE
Engine: Legendary inline-six engine (fiscal horsepower: 14 HP) developing around 145 real HP. A powertrain that transforms the car compared to a classic TR4, offering a captivating sound and incomparable driving pleasure. The car starts at the first turn.
Handling: The road-holding is perfectly balanced, healthy and rigorous, with no vibration in the steering wheel.
Braking & Components: Powerful, enduring and reassuring braking.
INTERIOR
Comfort & Upholstery: The cabin is notably comfortable thanks to seats with headrests from a TR6, perfect for long journeys.
Instrumentation: Dashboard fully functional. All gauges (oil pressure, engine temperature, etc.) as well as electrical equipment (headlights, indicators, wipers) work perfectly.
DOCUMENTS
Registration: Vehicle registered as a collector’s car.
Technical inspection: Valid and up to date, valid until November 1, 2031.
OTHER INFORMATION
Maintenance: Passionate owner. The car is checked and serviced very regularly by my mechanic, just like all my other vehicles.
Owner’s opinion: In a word: it is beautiful, comfortable, powerful and delivers absolutely exhilarating driving pleasure. A rare market opportunity, all the more since it is advertised at a price well below its true estimated value. A future collector to seize.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
