.... is out?

While checking out Tuscans yesterday at Castle TVR, we obviously had a good look at the other models - and I couldn`t help thinking (however misplaced this may be) the Sagaris has stolen the T350s "thunder". The two are very similer (the Sagaris looking like it`s a T350 on steroids externally) with the interior practically identical IMO.

I see the Sagaris as the max power version of the T350, Too wild for me.

I think the T350 is the most elegant TVR on the road...........

It never fails to turn heads (and I follow a very tasty Midas Gold T350 quite a lot )

I can't see the Sagaris ever taking it's place.

Personally I think the T350 is much better looking than the Halfords bolt-on styling of the Sagaris. The Sagaris almost looks as plastic fantastic as a Noble.

I still think the Sagaris is nice though, just prefer the T350.

What happens to the T350 now? I guess it will EOL sometime soon together with the Tamora once the Tuscan convertible runs out. Should be easier for TVR then - 3 models Tuscan, Tuscan Convertible and Sagaris.

I understand that they have already stopped making the T350t. Does anyone know how many they actually made? Is my car going to be a rarity!

The urges haven`t been lost, just changed priorities - but I can confirm that the wife likes the driver/peddle positioning in the Tuscan (she could never reach the Chim peddles properly) so it is definately on the short list now for when we return!

I guess so. For me 350 is prettier and cheaper, the Sagaris handles even better and has more power. The 500 limit must kick in very soon.

I think they should build widebody versions of the Tuscan and T350 like they did with the 1960(?) Tuscan.

It had a V8 in it (no debates on V8s please) and could do 0-6t0 in 4.2 seconds!!!

Anyway I think a widebodied T350 would still look elegant but a bit more purposeful and would enable TVR to slot in the Sagaris chassis and suspension. Perhaps a standard 4.0 engine to differentiate between a standard T350 and a Sagaris too...
