Just out of curiosity, if you had a budget of 40-50k, would you be looking at a Sag, or a 355 or 360 Fezza? scratchchin

Post that on the Ferrari site and see the response .... I think it's a foregone conclusion on here, Sag gets my vote

Must admit, you've not exactly posted the question in a place where the responses will be unbiased... biggrin

Therefore, the fact that you've posted it here, means that the Sag is what you really want..... smile

A Sag is a much more special car. I've had a few Ferrari's over the years and the Sag beats them all hands down.

Hmmm, be most interested to know in what way smile

would also like to add, have no intention of selling the Chim, just curious about Tiv owners views on the subject ears

Can't comment on the 360 but I very nearly chopped my T350 in for a black 355 last year. The 355 looked lovely, just felt really special BUT - when driving it didn't have the same sense of adrenaline, excitement and rush that the TVR gave. The TVR is to me more of an event to drive than the 355 was and that was more important to me than the prestige of the badge on the Fezza.

For me the F360 is the least inspiring Fezza of all time. Closely followed by the 430.

A mate of mine had a fantastic Sag,it won `Supercar of the Day` on Supercar Sunday at Gaydon and had a 4-page spread on it in EVO magazine,he had nothing but great reaction to it.He sold it to buy a 360 and the reaction to it was completely the opposite so he sold it and has bought a Audi R8 !

Lee's old car? Yes, that is a nice one.

Re: Ferrari. One of my friends has one and tbh once you've been in it a few times, it gets a bit boring. Just IMHO of course.

I think I'd say Dancing Donkey.

Had the go ahead from SWMBO to put a deposit down on the Sag when the prototype was doing the rounds, we went to Racing Green to see it. Unfortunately I just couldn't get comfy in it so wallet stayed in pocket.

Actually.....scratchchin I'd get Tuscan - I've got such plans for a Tuscan.

Hmmm, does it involve a stock GM LSX454 (620bhp) with a supercharger to push 850bhp? I wonder if it would fit...scratchchin

No different tack altogether, I've spoken to the place that will get the work and we think it should fit, and be pretty impressive. But I'm going to keep zip for a few reasons.
1. The TVR purists would hunt me down and kill me
2. The project needs more thought
3. I need shed loads more money biggrin

That will be L33's Sag, which he loved, despite calling it a bit 'raw' compared with Fezza's, Porsche's etc., and he sold it to me and then found himself a very well sorted F360 Spyder. He regretted selling the Sag, and didn't hold on the to Fezza for long, which pretty much tells you all you need to know I suppose.

I had a T350C before the Sag, and whilst I really enjoyed the T350, the Sag is a much better car 'out of the box' as they say, and I've not been lucky enough to own a Fezza to compare, but I do think the F355 is one of the prettiest cars of all time. I'd like both to be honest, but the Sag won;t be going anywhere - it will be passed on via my will sometime in the future biggrin

Last year I was lucky enough to go out on track in an F355 Challenge car and a Sagaris within minutes of each other, and while the F355 was probably the quicker car in the real world I'd take the Sagaris every time. The Ferrari had a real sense of occasion, but the Sagaris blew it out of the water for me. One of my all time favourite cars...
