Only problem is you wouldn't take it far before it broke. Beautiful looking cars, though.
They were one of the more reliable TVR's tbh. and a beast.
Couldnt afford, justify, the price some years ago - since then sky rocketed :cool:

Never driven one, but they look and sound amazing. The ones on the market seem to be approaching £80k! Even if I had the money, I don’t think I’m brave enough.

When I was looking they were around the £25k IIRC - know what you mean about being brave. Seen a good number at track days and I think :nailbiting:

I would love a TVR; 350c, Tuscan or Sagaris but every single one you see for sale has had ten of thousands spent just to keep it on the road. That is the BRAVE bit for me. A full engine rebuild on a 20k mile car is not my idea of fun. And it's not the odd one, it's most of them. The speed six was not a good engine.
You never see high mileage TVRs for sale anymore. There's a reason for that.
There are quite a few 'specialist' TVR garages around.....for good reason. They make a lot of money.
