I've no connection with the owner, except he did my Tuscan bonnet conversion a couple of years ago, but I'd take a look at this one, doubt you'll find better for the money! Mine is a similar pedigree in top condition, but if I ever do sell, it would be more expensive.

I'm am looking to sell my MK 1 if the circumstances are right. I'm currently poking to fund another TVR project which results in me letting her go.
It's polar silver made in 2000 and registered in 2001.
36k on the clock
Factory engine rebuild at 11k documented in the service history
Throttle bodies done in the last 2 k
Clutch and slave cylinder done 600 miles ago
Fresh boots on each corner
I have owned the car for the last four years and am currently the RO of East Mids TVRCC so trusted sale
What's your budget if interested
Cheers
Martyn

Hi Martyn,

Thanks for that, I have (provisionally) bought the car the Englishman spotted on Pistonheads today. If for some strange reason it doesn't happen i will be in touch.

Regards Aidan.

Allan is a top guy and totally genuine.

I'm sure that you are buying a good car as I know he has spent good money on it.

Good luck with your TVR Tuscan experience, I for one have loved mine.

Thanks Daggsy, you are right Allen is a top guy, The car is superb, Three and a half hours home over the A68 was a real trial by fire but it is truly a mad dog of a thing.

Its the only car I have ever owned that fast bikes pull into the slow lane on a dual carriageway to let you pass!
