What do you think?

Nice colour but it’s a 3.6, Shirley most buyers would want a 4.0?

[Lucozade]

Also has the "not-so-desirable" letterbox dashboard

Maybe hard to find someone if time comes to sell!

Have to admit I think TVR really screwed up with this design. The dash in the Mk1 is so much nicer to look at.

I beg to differ.

I bought mine specifically because it had this dash rather than the latter dials as I think it is more appropriate to the car's design language.

Each to their own eh?

Exactly. I am a bit odd in tastes though as I personally cannot stand the shape of the Griff - the one TVR almost everybody says is a design classic.

The outside of the T2 I do believe TVR got exactly right, I much prefer it to the Mk1 externally - perfect for me would be a combination of the two.

I'm with you on this Zippee! I just never liked the Griff!

I thought Shirly owned a Ferrari.

it was cheaper a week ago when it was advertised at 19800 by the owner, now looks like it is being commission sold by a dealer and they have added their cut. i thought it very cheap at 19800

[Chewitt]

great colour if you ask me - although that dash is hideous

has a "FULL RAC GOLD WARRANTY COVER" which might be good or sod all use.

For a Tusk2 its cheap


mind you that dash is truly madly awful - - you'd have to poke your left eye out before driving

A number of thoughts spring to mind:

a) my p&j must be worth f*ck all now
b) Mine has rare paint and it costs £500 a litre....there is no such thing as touching up !
c) Why hasn't it got the front spoiler ?
d) If there is nothing wrong with it then an engine upgrade would still make this a cheap car !
e) I think it would look better with different coloured wheels, but we won't go there !

I disagree! Good early mk1s still sell for 15-16k. Personally I think this is just a very cheap mk2, remember 1 car alone does not indicate the state of the market!

[Tuscan Jim]

Mk 2 standard models do not have the front spoiler. Front lower light cover needs re-sealing, and the aftermarket stereo looks dreadfull. Otherwise seems well priced.

[m3coupe]

May just be me but the advert doesn't really tell you much about the car other than standard and the major selling point seems to be a warranty!

Maybe a very well looked after car but I'd prefer more info on the car if i was looking to buy.

I recently wrote off my much loved year 2000 Tuscan Mk1. I paid 14k back in 2006 and just got 14k back off the insurance as their Valuator agreed that I coudnt replace it for less.

Looks good.
