The TR7 was first available as a hard-top coupe only, but from 1979 both hard-top and convertible versions remained in production up to October 1981. Available with a 4-speed gearbox at first, a 5-speed unit became standard from 1978. Optional extras included alloy wheels, automatic transmissions, and a sunroof on the coupe versions. A limited number, named the TR7 Spider, were produced for the California market and were fitted with fuel injection and air-conditioning.<\/p>\n<p>Details:<br \/>\nEngine TR7 &#8211; 4 Cylinder 90.3
