I suspect it’s mileage that’s putting people off which is daft really. The engine had the full powers rebuild and I can tell you it cost a hell of a lot more than 3k!! I spent on it what I sold it for 😬. Just hoping to keep track of it as one day I’d quite like it back when I’ve got a garage I can put it in.
Lucy P, thanks so much for your input.
I brought that car back from the dead, engine rebuild, interior retrim, electrics sorted - it was destined for the scrapyard otherwise. Gracefully I’ll locate it without your extremely helpful commentary. Everything is always for sale at a price. The sentimental value this car has to me and my family is worth paying. We bought a house in cornwall using the proceeds when I sold it, but I would like it back. I’ve owned four TVR’s, two of which have been rack and ruin and given a new lease of life through my hard work.
I wasn’t aware the TVR community was so judgemental. Sad, woke, times we live in !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lucy,
Thanks again for your helpful response.
I owned TVR’s for around a decade and I can honestly say I never came across anyone as judgemental as you have been here.
I’m trying to track down a family treasure, which we have pictures on the wall of (still). If you don’t like that then you are, of course, entitled to your opinion.
If you don’t like my approach then you are clearly totally entitled to this opinion.
I have been in touch with the previous two owners of the car because I’ve been desperately trying to keep track in order to one day purchase it back. Unfortunately I haven’t been in a position to do so until now. At no point did the other owners find it “creepy” or “weird” when I shared pictures with them of the refurb, retrim, engine build, pictures that were used in Sprint magaizine.
The work, and effort, I spent meant this car was one of four in the world of this specification so I don’t really think it’s in appropriate to try to keep track of how it is.
Your engagement here is so disappointing for an TVR owner and I’m actually not sure why you’ve felt the need to get involved.
Sad times when this sort of keyboard warrior attitude is displayed from what used to be such an inclusive membership group.
PS, the fact you think I was expecting someone to stand outside a total stranger’s house delivering a note is LUDICROUS.
What a sad world we now find ourselves in
