Mine. Bought for £12000 in November 2014 tongue out
I'm cheating really as mine's an odd japanese market one with a baby 4 litre engine smile
Cheapest recent sale I can recall is a dark blue 500 with tuscan headlights that I posted up on here that was for sale in Essex - I think that was 11k.

I paid £10,000 in October 2015, for my '92 400, one of the earliest on here...

I've spent another £11k on restoring it, so far.!!

That would make it a 46,000 GBP Griffith with the current exchange rate, excluding shipping and import costs. wink

Interesting.... This yellow Griff in Canada for sale is supposed to be a yellow ex show car. Its chassis number is 11761 and was registered in the UK in March 1992. Is this yellow Griff one that used to belong to PH'er "Tweety"?

So, hillclimbmanic, your car is "earlier" than a show car. Go figure TVR logic (scratching head...)

The yellow Canadian car isn't the original Motor Show car...That one is still in the UK, as far I know...

Isn't 'NM' in the chassis number suggesting its a December 1992 build?

That car is a darker shade than the motor show car. I think it was registered early January, but obviously built 1991.

No. I can't ship it until late November when it reaches 25 years old. frown
