It's a one-off apparently, and Iisted in the H+H classic auction on 20th September. LS3 engine and a guide price of £70k! I wasn't aware of this car at all, they say it is a 2013 car(an error perhaps?) but it was registered on 1st March 2006:

Look at 1286 in https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...

It was a pretty sorry looking vert before STR8SIX did the modification
Before (TVRs/Oxleys attempt)




£16.5k to sort out a non starting problem after it's STR8SIX modification would give me a concern smile
Failed MOT in April this year ... "engine leaking excessive oil" ... 320 miles in the last 5 years !!!

My mate Bradders bought it from Str8six and kept it for a couple of years before selling it back to them in anticipation of the new Griff.

Sadly, Bradders past away last year, we had some great times at Le Mans and other TVR events, he was a true enthusiast and this was his fouth TVR.
