This is actually KFR201D !

[GTRene]

well spotted, I was wondering already because of all the red
thanks, I will put that file in the KFR-201D file, it must be before some changes? edit, no those more old looking pictures are older I guess...I have a pdf file were it was for sale saying 23-06-2014.

yep, the more fresher looking pictures were made in 2008 and those a bit flat looking pictures say 2014

It's fairly hard to believe that KFR201D was still in red in 2014 ; it was bought by a belgian TVR fan and was partially restored in 2010 (or 2011 latest). It was painted black and received a new dark burgundy interior. Will try to post a picture or two later on.

I don't know, I only see that on the copy/print of that pdf, that is with this car and also the pictures say 2014 in the details, could be that those are how it originaly looks? anyways, it was for this car>

Just moved these pictures over from the other thread as they are great pictures and a shame to see them lost over there in months to come thanks to those that posted them

Yes it is. It has almost continuous ownership history since 1966

Partially restored by David Alt and brought to Europe by me in 2006, brakes and electrics fixed, made road legal, registered etc - most of those photos are mine. Currently for sale in Italy I believe

Here are a couple of pictures of it in 1971

you could ask the seller the question, I only asked him a while ago about the Griffith, maybe that other TVR is also his.>
