Triumph
One of the more reputable names housed within the BLMC organisation, Triumph started making cars in 1923 having made positive reputation for motorcycles. The concerns split up in 1936, with the car making division going into receivership just before the outbreak of war. Standard acquired the company 6 years later and its reputation for middle range saloons and sports cars began to emerge. BLMC took over the company during the firms golden period in the 60’s but decided to shelf the brand and the cars in 1984, after the last Honda based Acclaim was built.
