Without wishing to be picky, I think it's a feature on the S Series in general, not just the V8S.

That's the figure you get for Q3 2011 if you search the DVLA register for licensed 'TVR V8 S'. Mine and probably a lot more was registered as 'TVR 280 S'

was going to say blimy why are they only worth 8000 - 12000 if so few made, but saying that even if there are 300 on the uk road still very rare and if someone wants one they wont have much choice.

Thanks Kenny biggrin

I believe that only 420 V8S were originally made, who knows how many are left.

if you said

10% written off / rusted scrapped cars
5% garage queens / museum cars

only leaves 357 and say 70% of those are in the uk so only 250 currently in the uk ?

even if there was the full 420 in the uk still makes it a rare car
