There is a thriving TVR world in Australia..both Rover V8s and speed 6 varieties. We manage just fine..the internet, telephone and international couriers are all wonderful inventions.

You have the internet over there now??

I'm in a similar boat. I just bought a Griffith to bring over to the US in 2017. Yes the engine may have originally been a US design, but would I trust a US mechanic on the car? Probably not. I can do the basics on servicing etc, but the internet and this forum is an amazing resource.
Go for it!

So did you buy a 4.00 litre or a 4.3 litre?

Well done, the best of the bunch. It wouldn't be dark green with beige leather and ally dash with Leven controls?

Anyone know anything about this beauty?

Still on the fence over T-Car or Chimera, but really want to get one over here...

Don't know the car but just to say that I had a rebuild by Jason at Str8six on my first Tuscan.
Engine was amazing afterwards.
Give Jason a call. He may know some of its history.

Hopefully Julien once the Chimaera gets here we can meet up for a chat and compare. Am hopeful that the inspection this Wednesday is positive then we can start to sort out the shipping to get her here. Another TVR on the roads of Bulgaria.
