With the prices that S3's have been going for these last couple of weeks on eBay (<£4K) I bet he'll not get anywhere close to the asking price!

Admittedly I don't know much about TVRs, but that to my mind is a lot of car for not very much

...but it is advertised by James Ager. He knows his Tivs

So perhaps they are desirable after all

....I know mine is

Agreed.
...or buy a tatty one for £3-4k,have the chassis repaired properly,interior retrimmed,new hood fitted,a hundred and one electrical/mechanical issues sorted and about £15k spent and you will have a good one...

There was a very nice looking blue S which sold the other day on ebay for just over £3k. Quite a bargain by the look of it.

That's not far off the ball park I reckon.. I've been doing mine for the past couple of years and I don't think I'll see much change out of £13K, could be more.. Not bothered though as it'll be as near to new as possible..

That's a very honest appraisal of how much full refurbs cost, as a full spray job and interior retrim alone would not see much change from 8k l reckon without even touching the chassis and engine.

Marked as "sold" now; does anyone know how much it went for?
