[TR] TR 10

[John Macartney]

Not common in the US or Canada. It was imported but regarded as too small and too slow. Probably too 
expensive as well. It was essentially built for the UK and known there, as well as all other markets 
where it was sold as the Standard Ten. This one had a 948cc engine (as the early Herald)  while 
another, the Standard 8 had the same power unit but 803cc. This looks a nice one - except for the 
fact the engine's the wrong colour. It should be gold metallic and not BMC Olive Green. It also 
appears to have the little known accesory panel to the left of the speedo for two instruments off 
the TR range. Any two of oil pressure, ammeter or coolant temp. Price would seem to reflect what 
others like it in the same condition are being sold for in the UK.
