Did we lose another Sag?
Discussion
Saw it at BNG. Not happy to find this... http://www.salvagesparefinder.co.uk/TVR+SAGARIS+-2...
Yep - remember that post on that one.
Its still black, on an 07 plate and has black & silver plates and the TVR Power 19" alloys in black.
By chance it was on the Houx campsite with us earlier this year at Le Mans. I must say it did look very tidy.
Edited to say No 76 on the Sag register:

It was at Silverstone earlier this year when I got to go out in LeeT350t's car - gorgeous car, it's featured in Sprint as Tunstall Vehicle Repair's website so I would assume it got fixed up there? Batmobile is the right term for that beast.
Lovely lovely car, I was looking at it while we were waiting to go 'on track'.
TVR Power 19's are a very nice addition.

That was a good day Chris!!! Hope your well.Lovely lovely car, I was looking at it while we were waiting to go 'on track'.

That Sag looked great. Spoke to the owner but can't remember his name. You can see (most of) the car in this pic.
Cheers. Lee.

It's Dave & Rachael's car, members of the West Yorks TVRCC crew. I had no idea it had been so badly bashed though. They've spent a lot of money on it. It's had all the Sag Mk2 type conversions done, bonnet opener/rear facing exhaust/engine compartment tidy up etc. etc.
I was looking at it when I bought mine. The bonnet, rear facing exhaust etc were done at the factory and pre accident, I decided it was not for me so I went with my Sag. It does look good now though but yes it had had a big bump no doubt but pleased it was saved.Edited by blackiepaul on Wednesday 22 December 17:12
I remember looking at this car ages ago when it was smashed up.
The story goes that when it was written off, it was supposed to be a 'Cat D' but the insurance company, naughty, naughty, decided... sorry forgot to register it as a Cat D.... purely coincidental that they then managed to get a bit more cash for the salvage as a result of this 'error'.
To be fair, I don't think the damage was majorly bad, but at the time it worked out more economical for a lot of these insurance companies to write off the cars at the slightest sight of any damage, because the salvage values were quite high.

just out of interest, how do they get away with the black/silver number plates. Thought they had to be on a pre-1973 reg car. Does look great though.
