Met him a few times, mainly at Le Mans. Introduced via Joos of TCS, who like Joos, is an honest talking guy, who knows his stuff and although I have never bought a car from him, know of others who have, who highly recommend him.

yes Yup - agree with Paddy.

Although I have never bought (or sold) through him, he's a rare breed of honest secondhand car dealer.

The secondhand world in TVRs is pretty limited and everyone knows everyone else, so nobody will last long if they haven't kept a pretty immaculate reputation!

Thought I would share my experiences with James Agger...

I bought a Tuscan From James a year ago and he was excellent to deal with,

My tuscan was well prepared (just had a service from TVR power) and was in good condition - He does try and only shift cars he either knows or likes himself -
e.g. my car was bought and sold by James to the previous owner before me so he knew the history of it.

I guess that you pay a little more than you would privately but probably no more than a dealer, but for me, I wanted the piece of mind that came with buying from someone with a good reputation.

I would definitely consider buying from him again.

just as an aside - mine broke down on the day I bought it smile (not James' fault - the throttle cable snapped) and James was more than helpful - he paid for the new cable and got on the phone to the garage to try and get it fixed asap for me.

Hope this helps

Hi,

bought my Tusc two and a half years ago, had no issues with the car whatsover, was waxoiled and serviced before I picked it up, and excellent after sales service. When (if) I upgrade, I will definately be using James for my next Tiv, highly recommended
