This Expert Guide is designed to offer TR2 and TR3 owners an insight into the common problems that can arise, how to diagnose and how to fix them; often making an improvement at the same time. Arranged into easy-to-follow sections – engine, driveline, suspension, etc. – it's possible to see not only where the problems originate, but also how to resolve them.

Useful information is also provided on owners’ clubs and spares suppliers to help keep your car in good condition and on the road. Keep this essential book in your glovebox for practical advice while on the road.

Paul Hogan has owned TRs for over 40 years, including three TR6s. While serving his apprenticeship working on Jaguars and Healeys he stripped down his own TR to the last nut and bolt and rebuilt it from the ground up. The fact that this car is still in excellent condition is testament to the care he lavished on it at the time. A former Chairman of the TR Register, Paul helped to raise the profile of the TR range through racing his own TR at Le Mans, and he has experienced many of the problems described in this book on his own cars.
