If your car is the original Nivea Blue car, it should have reference to the UK registration plate in the history, PO55 BKE

If it is then that car was built a long time before being registered as a 55 plate. It was one of the first customer Sag's to be produced by TVR, sold to a company who used it as a display car. The car was left unregistered for a substantial period of time, but it was built early 2005. For example, in April 2005 it was at the Trafford centre being used by Nivea, and July 2005 it was used by Nivea in Basingstoke Sopping Centre, both times to promote a new men's product range

The car appeared in the PH classifieds in January 2006 after the company who originally owned it for displays had finished using it. It was being sold then as 'unregistered' for £43k.

If it is the fixed bonnet - like I used to have on my car - then it is a very early one.

So, if rubber seal around the inspection bonnet + fixed vents (i.e. part of the actual inspection bonnet
and not addition pieces), then very early Sag.

@Kevin
Yes, it was PO55 BKE (I have the original plates)!

Very interesting, I've contacted Nivea yesterday - maybe I'll get more information/pictures...

@Alex
Ok, I always thought, that the bonnet with the fixed vents is the later one....

Saw your Sagaris at Racing Green in Feb.2008 and did some pics of it. Looks good now! When they sold it, it was just a small heap of plastic boltet togheter were possible...

@Gary
I wrote an Email to Nivea yesterday - let's see what happens...
