Whats the difference between a S6 cerb and hot cakes??
Seem there are a few on here that arent shifting ! Even one at £16.5K after 7K worth of recent work!
THere is someone trying to sell a similiar one in Surrey Advertiser for some £25K (From memory)- so I guess it is worth trying to sell via a place where non S6 aware people reside.

To be fair you can pick up v8's for similar cash albeit with lots more miles. Both are bargains if you choose carefully.

Without a recent rebuild on the S6 at the same mileage I'd imagine the premium on the ajp8 is 6-8k, with one I suppose 3. Of course if the S6's track record improves this will change.

Seen some S6's go for as little as 14k for a 2001!

Great! £15k depreciation in less than a year!
I sure hope NS has got the Speed 6 sorted or its curtains for TVR as we have known it!

Yeah, i saw this one too. I was so impressed with the price that i drove a 500 mile round trip last night, and snapped his hand and half his body off at the same time!!

Reason for the price is the owner is going to Singapore today. Car's a belter and he wanted a quick sale.

How come your rebuild was so cheap ? £2K !!!?

I emailed him. Didn't want to confuse too many people.

But sometimes .....just sometimes cars need to get sold quickly and its a case of getting there before someone else I suppose.

We did exactly the same with a Griffith last year on PH. Sometimes a price is just what the present owner needs to get back for a car (whether its a TVR or not).
Luck was on our side this time as it came on yesterday pm - within three hours of the advert we had it on the trailer!

This thread in itself shows that the car was under priced.

It might be that in reality there isn't as much as people think if its the right one.

Well done, if I had had the cash to hand and didnt have a 9-5 job I would have snapped it up, still your £199950 price for it is still reasonable.

Gary was that a slip of the 0 at the end as I would take slightly less to you

I hope its fairly priced, we need to give it some fettling at TVR and a lick of paint to be fair but the monies been spent on it without question and the full engine warranty makes the car a very attractive purchase after I looked into exactly what was done.
