I have heard of a few more than two cars with this done, but not many. There have been a few that have appeared on the classifieds section, but perhaps sometimes, some people get confused with the Red Rose and the full 4.0 S engine. Must be a little firecracker of a car! Do you have any pics you can post?

I see you're from Devon. Is your car the Grey 04 Plate one that Peninsula TVR had for sale at one point last year? Its got black leather, and the glove box does NOT fit and pops up all the time!! I think Peninsula shifted it on to another dealer in exchange for a few Elises.

If so, then I had that car as a loan car whilst my T350T was in for service at Peninsula! It does shift, but I didn't rag it, honest!.....

Hi sswinno - I also have a 4.0S in my T350T specc'ed & built at the factory over and above the Red Rose spec so would be interested to see what it's worth (not that I'm thinking of selling it )

As the pits has stated, there is believed to be more than this, whether they were built like this from the factory, or converted afterwards by TVR Power. I think it has been mentioned here, that there might be 6 or 7 built like this.

Rich.

The conversion cost £6.5k from Dom. I had mine done with a Saggy head put on with cams FOC.

Sold my one T350/400C 6 months ago at a price in the late 20's on an 03 plate, engine had only done 1500 miles from conversion, so basiaclly a brand new engine. Car had done 12000 miles.

Thanks rich and kmpowell yes car was the one at peninsular and that bloody glove box lid had new one designed and fitted by a local fabricator in stainless steel. Cant believe you didnt rag it i certainly did on test drive thats why i bought it after all a car like this needs to be driven so why not.Bought it from Ferrari garage in Exeter and has been serviced and prepped by Dulfords in Cullompton really great guys up there.Would really like to know how many of these are around though.

Not at all it was kracking, I just became a dad in the meantime, so I bought a Cerbera so my Son can come for a blast too...

Yes, the conversion is terrible, I'll advise everyone not to have it done
