Morning Gents,

I'm trying to source a TVR T350 with either 4.3 or 4.5 rebuild for a friend. Sadly he doesn't like the one for sale at TVR MADs.

Does anyone here have on they are thinking of selling in the future. It would ideally be after the new year when he it looking to buy.

Thanks,

I might if the price was right smile

I have my eye on something else wink but it would have be the right price as the car is just so nice now and it would be hard for me sell but you never know

Hows you any way

We are off to Arras next Friday

Got loads planned next year, we have booked The Black Forest trip for September looks really good if you want I will send you details

Sorry I was a bit short on info there....

Any colour but black (Not that there were many black T350's). Budget of up to £30k for the perfect spec car.

No probs good luck with your search, I doubt you will find a 4.5 for 30K though, maybe one that needs a lot of work done to it

Forgot to add engine fitted last February and only done 7000 miles and last service was carried by TVR Power so still got 100,000 mile warranty

Cost of engine upgrade with other bits and pieces £15,000

Got agreed insurance valuation of £39,000 so offers about £45,000 and it's yours

I might come the new year, brilliant silver, mulberry hide, 4.3, new clutch, lightweight fly and gearbox rebuild by Readman racing, nitorns etc etc...
I just need to get some paint issues sorted first

You just reminded me, I changed the ali foot pedal to a carbon fibre one as well and while I was changing that I did not realise the screws was different lengths and screwed through the brake servo so it has new one and while all the gubins was out I had the brake master cylinder changed

of course if price is right. 2004 T350 color of your choice interior color of your choice.
engine wise 4.3 with bits and boobs currently in the making. once done should be around
the strongest tvr´s on the list. on top of the 4.3 you can add another 7K for bits and boobs
engine wise. interior and exterior could be done as per your liking. big brake conversion
nitrons alloys etc. of course all there. price is 39+
