<<Bill Piggott in "Original Triumph TR" (p.22)--"Much has been made over the 
years of the TR having a 'tractor' engine: although this engine was used in 
various forms for many years in the Ferguson tractors manufactured by
Standard-Triumph, this was not its intended use when conceived.">.

The Standard engine was used in the late Renown, and Vanguard series, and 
also in slightly different form in boats and Ferguson tractors.

But don't feel too superior - I have seen MG engines in tractors, boats, and 
Mercedes vans (as OEM fitment).
