Non-Sports Car Triumph: Standard 10 Sedan

Most people think of the TR series of sports cars when the topic of Triumphs comes up.  A decent number might also think of the pocket-sized Spitfire or related GT6 or the rather interesting Stag grand touring cabriolet. With all that sports car and grand touring history, it’s easy to forget that there were Triumph-badged family cars at one time.


Most, if not all, of those cars were products of the purchase of Triumph by the Standard Motor Company.  Standard sold a decent number of vehicles in other markets, but was not well known in the US.  Today’s example is the Standard 10, which was sold as a Standard in many markets, but badged as the Triumph 10 (AKA TR10) here in the US. This is the predecessor to the better-known Herald.

We heart the two-tone paint and classic lines here.

Interior is very basic, but the wood dash is cool.  This hints at the size of this car.
