Hi guys,
i´m looking for a nice S1.
At the moment there are not so many for sale.
Maybe someone want to part with no advert at the moment.
As I enjoy TVR´s since 1995 I did not have any experience with a S-Series,
A really good chassis is very important, strong running gear also.

i´ve got some pics from an advertised "body off" S1 from a dealer (sorry no name)....
body off means, the car lifted and sprayed on a rusty chassis....
Not really thats what i´m looking for....

Any ideas?
Kind regards from south germany

Why S1 specifically?

S1 because i like the 2.8 engine, the oz-wheels and they are early cars...
A very early S2 in nice condition would be an alternative.

I have the S1 slots with a V8s. Looks the same bar the ugly bonnet bulge Philpot has an issue with. Bit more poke than a 2.8...

I've got a very late S1 (which looks more like an S2 as it runs on 8-spokes) that I keep threatening to sell, but it's not quite ready. Space and funds dictate I should sell it, but heart and ambition say keep it. I'd probably only end up replacing it rather than saving the money anyway!

It's an '89 S1 in charcoal grey with mulberry (dark red) interior. Chassis has been refurbished, loads of extras....too much to list really. But not really ready for sale yet, and does need a few more bits and bobs doing. Not sure why I'm telling you this, maybe to prep myself for the time I do actually sell it laugh

You could try contacting Mat Smith as last time I spoke to him he was contemplating selling his S1.5. I know he has completely rebuilt it so will be as good as you could wish for. Hi website is www.matsmithsportscars.com
