There is a good value Sagaris with your name on it in the classifieds. You could sell that on for at least 5k more.
??? Apologies if I'm missing the obvious but I don't want a Sag, my comment on the lairy green one being a hypothetical one.
I've just got my T350 back, fully resprayed, re-carpeted, refurbed wheels, recent gearbox rebuild and now a Power 430 engine so no way I'm selling up now I have probably one of the best examples of my model on the road smile

Stunning. I agree, it is probably one of, if not the best T350T there is.

Yeah it ticks all the boxes for me and for me being the 'original' colour identified with the Sagaris it will hopefully be very desirable as a collectible future classic.

Unlucky for you I plan to keep this car for life and it will sit alongside my M400 as the start of my rare and British sports car collection. smile

Will upload pics when I get her in 2- weeks, got to go offshore tomorrow to top up the funds first though! I'm like a kid waiting on Christmas, hopefully it will be a far better car than my dog of a T350 was a few years ago, its true though, the TVR bug never lets go!
Good job!
That is achingly beautiful.

Good company to buy from too - always been very professional when I've bought goodies from them.

WTF...
It looks like it is also on the seat backs, So I guess it is meant to be like that just can't work out WHY!!!.
Is it a wrap of some sort?

Not a wrap judging by the horrifica paint runs above the windows.

I can't really make it out but it looks a bit like a smart idea executed extremely badly.

^^ This car is German registered.
Someone has obviously tried to get a 'look' - doesn't do it for me though.

Slightly reminiscent of a FW 190 paint job circa 1943. ;-).

I can assure you the car looks great in real life. It was rebuilt after being fire damaged.
The paintjob repeats everywhere on the inside and is well executed. The model label on the back is handmade to suit its history and says "PhoenixS" cool

Anyone as old as me may recall a similar effect created on "vac formed" slot car bodies back in the late sixties?
the "crackle" effect achieved by spraying hair laquer onto the paint, let it dry then apply second colour to show through.
