International Weekend, Malvern, 23 - 25th July 2010 |

| The "Andy Canning Experience" was a great success on Saturday night | But for me, the main attraction on this, the TRR 40th Anniversary, was the line up of ex-works cars and personnel. Here is a 1954 TR2 driven in the Mille Miglia by Ken Richardson and Maurice Gastonides |
 |
 |
| Jan Pearce's 1955 Le Mans TR2. Fitted with prototype disc brakes and driven by Leslie Brooke and Mortimer Morris-Goodall, race # 68, it finished a creditable 19th overall with 214 laps. The other two team cars, PKV 376 (Robert Dickson/Ninian Sanderson) # 28 was 14th and PKV 375 (Bert Hadley/Ken Richardson) #29 was 15th. Both covering 242 laps. However, that race will always be remember for the disaster in which Pierre Levegh and 80 plus spectators were killed. | Mike Otto kindly brought his TRS "927 HP" over from Germany. The Sabrina engine now running on Webers rather than the period twin-choke SUs . |
 |
 |
| When was the last time you saw a Sabrina engine or for that matter, two TRS' in one place ? | This is Otto Snr's "928 HP" |
 |
 |
| Right to left, 3 VC, 4 VC and 6 VC the ex-works TR4 Rally cars | Seen in the concours hall, this lovely TR Francorchamps. One of just 22 built by the Triumph Belgian importers, with a fixed steel hardtop and wind up windows. Those things on the left are the original fake wire wheel trims that would have been fitted over disc wheels. |

 |
| A very wet Steve Redway, but real trooper that he is, carried on regardless | A Triumph Italia 2000, very rarely seen in this country |
 |
 |
| A nice picture of Simo Lampinen and his co-driver, Mike Broad, with Steve Rockingham's 1978 ex-works TR7 V8, which he drove on a number of occaisions | The 21 ex-works cars, the owners, drivers, team personnel and guests in the ring for an important picture |
