I don't know the car but if I had the money I'd be making a cheeky offer. Unfortunately the bank account is empty after buying the T350. Be careful as the initial advert mentioned an MOT failure on emissions, this could be a setup problem at best, or at worst head gasket failure (first hand experience!).

Its been in for MOT twice in the last few months.... Holes in outriggers and engine overheating along with the emission failure....head gaskets as said would worry me slightly if its been overheating.

Overheating as well, all points to head gasket.

Shame you can't just "patch" the outriggers..

Sounds like it needs a chassis refurb at least then.

Thanks for the replies folks.
Looks like I'll be giving it a miss

The car had a fueling issue with the pressure reg. which has been sorted and a new thermostat.

Shes not perfect by all means but its half price and hpi clear.

I missed out on this Cerb, was due to go and view but he took a deposit in the meantime....
Anyone have a similar car for sale or know of anyone who does? The one on Ebay is still in the classifieds (silver with red interior) - an original project car around the same price - colour not important but needs to be original spec (lights, wheels, etc)??

It's cat D but any good.

Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/222347705475

It's from tvr glen who apparently doesn't have a good reputation but it was for sale in France I believe a few months ago for same sort of money.
I think it was a known car in the tvr community and was looked after but how it's been treated in the last few years is anyone's guess but I do like the interior and exterior colour .

I was going to look at this car at James Aggers 11 years ago with a view to buying it but it was sold before I got there! I have always kept my eye on this car and I believe its been looked after,it did sustain some light body damage only a few years ago but I believe it was repaired correctly.A good buy at that price I think as long as the chassis is not rotten.
