Wondering about my car value...
Discussion
I'd say that as yours is so rare it would be impossible to value accurately and I'm sure someone would pay over the top just to have a 2.0 litre supercharged version. But if you are talking about for insurance agreed value if I were in your position I'd insure for top V8S price (which as you're in Europe will be higher than in the UK, looking at the Dutch ones that have been for sale recently) and add another 50%.

Thanks Mark...Mark
My curiosity was about the car value itself, not for insurance questions
You have been very clear, so you think it is impossible to establish a price, it depends on the buyer...
A standard V8S LHD goes for Euro 24.9250 = UKP 21.550 (Dealer price)
Being a collectors item, your's would be worth a lot more !

I know its off the topic, but what kind of performance does the supercharged car have? Is it as powerful as the standard V8S?
Hi,to be honest I don't know the performance of the standard V8S...
What I can tell are the specs of my car:
power: 223 bhp
speed: 232 km/h
I don't know the 0-100 km/h acceleration datum, I've never tested it

Ah ha
Now i have viewed the pics and read the thread, i understand.
What a superb car.....i want one
But I dont want it to go wrong !!!!!!!!!!
As for a valuation, I would certainly re-evaluate and imagine it must be worth 15K +
To a TVR collector in the UK it would be priceless as it was never sold here
Do you know of many others ?

Not LHD and no EU type approval
The critical part is the approval. TVR only ever did full EU on one model (Chimaera) and all the rest have "small volume national approval".The S series did have national type approval in many EU countries but very few were sold in Europe. The fundamental problem today is that if you wish to register a car in Europe you have to be able to provide a certificate of conformity for your car, declaring conformity to the national t/a standards appropriate for that country.
TVR doesnt exist as a legal entity any more for providing such documents (and the last news I heard was that they had lost nearly all their approval files while moving
So as Han said, the value of any TVR with full EU papers will be VERY much higher than for the UK version. IIRC there only were ever 3 Italian cars made with 2 litre SC engines.
Given the rarity and the fact that the car has EU papers I would put the value at least 30,000 euro. Maybe even as high as 40,000 if the condition is very good.
