150bhp TR6 Registration Number: LBB109L was completed on 31st August 1972 and despatched to dealership, Rossleigh Ltd, Newcastle.

The original colour was New White. Body number 55219 and fitted with a late CP series engine.  Full history is held and verifiable.

I bought my TR6 from TRGB Ltd at Somersham, Cambs on 18th April 2003. It was in goodish nick and as used by TRGB in promotional work. Although the car had had a major restoration from the chassis upwards in 1986 and again 1996/97 there were still alot of things I wanted to do to give the car my identity rather than the one I had bought. MX5 seats, carpets, radio cassette, dashboard, steering wheel, poly bushes all round, new tyres, radiator, hoses,electronic ignition, wiring, pacet fan, rechromed bumpers, gaz shocks and still the list goes on and on.  In 2005 my TR6 won 1st prize in the Pride of Ownership competition for TR6 class at the TR International Show at Malvern.

Satisfied with its reliability we drove in company with friends all the way to the South of France visiting Monaco and St.Tropez and then all the way back via Clermont Ferrand and not once did she misfire. Living close to France we often travel to the continent. Most years we travel to Le Touquet for their classic show and  Honfleur, Normandie with the South Downs Group in 2006 and this year attended the Circuit Historique de Laon in May with the Kent Group.
