Does anybody know or recognise it? Looks tidy enough and reasonably priced. I've also read good reviews about the dealer.
Tamoras have held values well or only depreciated slightly over the last few years. Is that a fair observation?

I hope Tamoras aren't depreciating, it helps justify the amount I spend on mine (which is the same attractive Viper Blue colour as the one for sale).

I don't know the car, but would be surprised if it is a 4 litre if there is no mention of a rebuild (it is registered as 3.6). Not that it is a concern, the 3.6 is the better engine anyway smile

I overlooked the engine size tbh. I'm going to have a chat with the dealer in any case.
Your blog looks interesting though....

I have recently bought a speed 6 cerbera from Tony Gilbert and found him very helpful and he was recommended to me by several other members of the mid Essex tvrcc.

Have bought and sold several Tvrs from Tony over the years including the latest Tuscan, a good old fashioned trader who knows them inside out back to front and upside down, you can't go wrong, just don't ask for a discount! thumbup

Has anybody used a specialist to source a car? There's not much stock out there at the moment so perhaps they can offer more options?

Bought my T350 from Tony - a good experience and a good dealer.
By the way I did haggle with Tony and we came up with a deal that was good for both of us.

He's taken a deposit so I've missed out viewing. Looked nice though and in my favourite colour. Ar$e.

A fellow tvr mate went to go see it and said it was far from perfect, said the paint wasn't great amongst other things. He later decided to keep his chim as condition wise it was just too bigger step backward
