Has anyone ever confirmed when the last S4 was built ? The "bible" indicates that there were very few built in 1994 but when I had the centre console out of mine recently, written underneath it was the date 20/9/94 # 1626 and it was signed by G Gill. Is there anyone at the factory that keeps this sort of information ?

i saw the car only a month or so ago, its in a sorry state. Hoods ripped, leaking water all over the rotting carpets, the veneer has lifted from the dash, the boot lid needs painting and there are various scratces all over, its a real shame cos it would make a beautiful car. I have been told that the factory are going to restore the car to its former glory very soon, i hope so !!!

How can it be a scoop when it is facing backwards ? It must be a sucker ! (something to do with ground effects !)

Danz don't worry too much about this
it is squarely aimed, with tongue firmly in cheek, at a S4 I/we know that has had this done, along with a few engine mods . harry
The last S4 was Vickies, who only made it out of the car park before handing it back.
It was used as a courtsey car for a while then was sat out with the White Elephant for the past few years.
When I was home 2 weekends back it had been moved inside again. I think the plan is to do it up again.
BTW both cars are mine so hands off

Both
, does this now mean the factory are going to preserve some of the models for historical puposes or is it they have a buyer for it . Either way please it is in, out from the cold and rain
, I think the S4 is probably the best looking S, given it has the nicest bonnet, shame it didn't have a V8 though . Harry
I sincerely hope it is restored and sold to a careful owner . The S4 is quite rare even by TVR standards, I hope it comes out better than new and original.
On top of the one thats had a scoop fitted there's another one thats a mobile advert, very tacky me thinks, no taste some people.

I think I know the one you are referring to (at least it has still got the correct # of cylinders)
. The more S4's modified the better ! It just makes the "original" ones more rare. Dan
