According to this (http://www.automobile-sportive.com/guide/tvr/s.php) it's either a 13CV with a 2.8 engine or a 14CV with a 2.9.

From experience, you might have some explaining to do if you get randomly stopped by the police and show insurance paperwork with a french address and a car on british plates...

I recommend reading the paragraph in the article I linked to above about homologation, as well as these posts http://www.tvrcarclub-france.net/forum/viewtopic.p...

If you are lucky enough to have a car which is sufficiently similar to the French ones to get a French national type approval certificate from the DREAL then you are well away, otherwise your other options are to keep it on UK plates until it reaches 30 years old or else do the French equivalent of IVA (in which case brace yourself...)
