About this title

About the Author:

Aircraft was Roger Williams' first love, and he joined the de Havilland Aircraft Company where he quickly added motorcars to his list of prime interests. During the ensuing six years he not only completed his apprenticeship and studies, but also built two Ford-based specials. and in 1986 he started his own consultancy business, which allowed him to restore numerous MGBs, a Triumph TR6 and a Triumph Stag, and to write several MGB and Triumph TR books.

Review:

"This volume is divided into 17 chapters dealing with all aspects of the cars. It is very well illustrated with mostly color photographs and the author goes into great detail ..." – Club Torque
 

"The new edition of How to improve TR2-4A is a great book and destined to be on all TR2-4A owner's shelves." – TR Action
 

 

 

"Concentrating solely on four-cylinder TRs, this is as comprehensive a tuning manual as you're ever likely to find." – Octane

TR Register  New Zealand

"I would recommend it to anyone who is interested, not only in modifying their TR, but in understanding just what possibilities exist and where there may be opportunities to make small improvements when they come to replace worn out components.
