TVR plunge again?

[bumcrack]

Still love the look of the 350 and want one, used to have a 02 Tamora which I have to say was pretty poorly built, but it went like stink and never let me down. Don't really think it's an everyday car as TVR claims though.

Anyway was thinking of a T350 as a second car/toy. Just wondering about parts or the unthinkable engine rebuild, now that TVR have up'ed sticks. As I remember the TVR factory used to make a contribution if you had major engine problems, I suppose that's out the window now.

Anyone had trouble acquiring parts and is the dealer network still in place?

Regards

What was the reg of your 02 Tamora and what colour was it, just for interest.

Supply of body shell parts, clams etc is the biggest worry for me.

If you have a small accident, your car could be off the road for months awaiting new parts.

Independently supplied body parts are easily available. E.g. from www.newlunperformance.com

TVR Power will do anything engine related that the factory previously would have

TVR Power also took the body moulds for Tuscans and early Sagaris (before they changed the bonnet!) acording to the details on the TVR Car Club website, so parts or body section supply should not be a issue. If you're in Yorkshire you have a good selection of dealers. There is still Harrogate Horseless, now trading as Drivestyle convertibles, and also Specialist Sports cars at Boroughbridge who also offers Speed 6 servicing. A little further North, Hexham Horesless are still very much alive!
