Anyone interested in this. Seems like it may be a good opportunity if you're in the market for a 3000S project.

That looks a good buy for someone. A lot of work to do but worth it in the end.

Apparently and not surprisingly sold in 24 hours.

I hope someone on here has bought it and we can follow the progress of getting it back on the road.
I would think it would take £10,000 + to get it back into running shape

Gone to a dealer I believe. If I thought it could be restored for £10k I would have joined the queue.

I mean £10,000+ if you do like me and diy + like a very big challenge
I hope the dealer it's gone to is someone who will get it back on the road.
Not a wheeler dealer that just slaps it back on the market with a pumped up price

Even doing a lot yourself its £15 to £20K to restore add 20k if your paying a company to do what others would do themselves.
If you take it at 400 to 600 man hours £45 to £65 an hour do the maths its not hard
Very few TVRs make economic sense to restore and its thanks to many of you guys out there that put in the time that they do today both in the past and recently
