That time has come
The money is required to fund the new businesses - which with a bit of luck will probably come full circle and fund a new T2 'vert.

Loved my yr with the car, the adventures have been excellent and the pace at times outrageous. Ive hung on the car about 3 months longer than I had actually initially intended, a combination of TVR's woeful news on the day I was about to put it up sale originally and then well, frankly, not wanting to sell! Mind was mostly made up by the other half though who not unreasonably would prefer the financial security of the money "invested" in the businesses rather than the car. Im not massively sad at see her go, mostly because Ill still be intimately involved with Sagarii's and Ill be back in the fold within a matter of months.
The ad hasnt got any pics up yet, they are at work, so Ill update them tomorrow.

Never mind DJC. You know you're doing for the right reasons. Hopefully you'll sell it fairly quickly judging by the other Reflex Charcoal Sag in the classifieds (gone in 4 days!). Spectraflair Copper? Well that's another thing entirely rolleyes

I actually like that Spectraflair Copper colour! Think it looks kinda cool, dont tell RPA either, but I think the Burnt Retina Orange is starting to grow on me also!

If the fiancee had had her way the car would/should have gone on sale the best part of 6 months ago, long before all this came up!
Simple finances though, the capital in the car is needed to help fund the business. The first customers are already in and come pretty much a month today the first customer car with the new bodywork, exhausts and aeros will be handed over to said delighted customer.

Fear not, with a bit of luck, there will be another TVR on the driveway very quickly!

With the anthracties and black leather interior it does look very mean in the flesh, a lot better than in pics. Have to say the 440 looks a lot better in the flesh also, the proportions work much better than just on pics.
