You can get a brand new Sag for not much more. I think nearer £30K is the right money.

Even after 10-15 years that is still one fine looking motor veehickle. I think I would rather buy one for 15 grand and spend another 20 grand on it. More fun that way. But if the last Griff is worth £40k then the last Cerb is probably worth something similar. Lovely colour.

Or did you mean the design in general?

In general. Original Autocar test was 1996/7. If I remember correctly, Autocar said you'll need an XJ220 to go faster. And it looked so much better than anything else. Brilliant car.

I was the original owner of this car, owning it directly from TVR.

Still has a very special place in my car owning memory!

Agree with the above though. I bought it for less than £40k when it had done about 500miles. I sold it for about £30k to a dealer, who in turn sold it to someone for about £35k ish IIRC.

Good luck to the guy though, if he gets want he wants then he hasn't done too badly at all. And if it is like when I had it, the new owner will be well chuffed with it at pretty much any price.

FactoryPilot, flippin' heck you've had some cars! You must put in some serious overtime stacking shelves at Tesco to pay for that lot. Only mildly jealous biggrin

Just checked..... my profile is way out of date too biggrin


and yep, I put in a lot of hours stacking those shelves, plus two paper-rounds and working at the hand-car wash all day Saturday......... the price of being a petrol head.

I'm still wondering why is wasn't made a RedRose, I've also heard there were a few others, according to my Russian sources.

Yeah, why not a red rose engine, yes it's the last. But I wouldve gad all the bells and whistles. Have you had it on the dyno? Purely for interest really, not mines bigger than yours as it sometimes turns out here.

I'm sad to hear this has gone now, along with the Sag. They were both gorgeous cars.



Seems 'I'm the only TVR owner in the village' now then wink

Oooh glad it's still there. Middle future F1 driver son and I went on a spotting walk the other evening. (I hadn't realised the Delorean had gone). I'll have a word with Johnny, maybe he'll treat me wink
