TVR "Nelly" White Elephant

Only 1 made!


TVR Trident Coupe

1 of 1



I think a few more were badged and named Trident Clippers, but as far as I'm aware, only two were TVR?

Happy to be corrected though

OK, I've just read through the whole thread and we're missing:





Robert's Guara below:


Kremer 935 below - on the roadbiggrin


The 924GTS was earlier. This is the far rarer GTR:

I saw this when it was in the Park Lane showroom which years later also house the F1:

I thought I'd slip this one in. Steve Green at the Pod in one of his earlier paint scheme's. Highly modified Rover V8 with a stick shift and no wheelie bars and while I would'nt want to put money on it could probably out accellerate to 60 pretty much all the cars on this thread:

79 De Tomaso Longchamp GTS

I don't think renault made many of these



I know TVR didn't make many of these



These two just happen to be my two favourite cars as well!

  • EDIT*
Is there any chance this topic could be given sticky status? Its not often I read every page of a 25 page Topic and some people have done a lot of homework to track down pictures of some of these rarities.

The Alfa Romeo Sport Zagato - only around 1000 made, but there was only ever one made in black and that belongs to Mr Z himself...

So rare I can't even find a picture of the black one!

and yet still available for about 20k! Dear Santa, I've been a very good boy this year......

More like the, much cheaper Ferrari F40. Looks better IMO, and is just as fast.

My father in law owned this until last year, it just sat there, was sold and is now roadworthy, this is the only one anywhere, called a "Rothwell".
