In answer to the questions . This is a customers car which is probably going to be in nightfire red with vents closed . Production is being discussed with the targa and/or full convertable version and a V8 fitted.

Don't get carried away, it's only in essence a Sagaris with a Targa/convertible roof. I think an awful lot more than that was needed to save TVR.

Lovely looking car.. prefer it to the Melling Wildcopy.

Your are using the final models to create something of a hybrid but something still the essence of TVR. The open roof Sagaris would of been a real gem and now we seem to be lucky enough to see its birth. Gorgeous.

Personally I like the Wildcopy but im sad that people dont see that it is just a revamped copy of the Griff and not something totally new. It doesnt matter that the enine and chassis are new. The car screams Griffith from every pore.

Well done plastic man on bring the best of one model to the best of another, and i hope you can do many more in the future.
