Wow, I'm a TVR nut but at that price I'd go for a McLaren MP4-12C.

Bargain I would say!

I mean not like you can find them everyday.

I imagine someone with a few quid will snap it up for a private collection.

Racing Green are certainly doing their bit for TVR residuals of late.

Yep. He must have got fed up of having to sort out all the bits.

For the exclusivity, low mileage, engine spec, carbon body/tub and a 4 seater TVR, this is worth a lot. Not sure I would pay that much from that particular franchise unless I was getting a very "cast iron" package with the car. I would also expect the number plate to be included! ;-)

It is mine. biggrin

I put it into storage for winter in 2012 and never found the time to take it out again. Sadly.

There's no doubt that it's the best car I've ever owned and the most fun. It drives like no other Tiv but still has all the Tiv character.

It's a 400+ horsepower, all English sports car with Le Mans pedigree. Arguably built by England's last ever true sports car builder and there are only three of them. Nothing quite beats passing German and Italian mass built exotica on the Autobhan in this car.

Still, if no one else wants it it won't break my heart. wink
