[ewan221]

I know of two that have sold recently but both well priced with good history but have heard a few people say that sales are slow

If there cheap i reckon, had my 450 up for sale for over a month, i think its the right money, right spec but not a sniff.

Bought my very first TVR, a 450, at the end of April. (very pleased with it too!) Only looked at two and the other one is STILL for sale. Although the other one was nice, it was the wrong colour combo for me - and seemingly for others. I reckon buyers are very choosy these days about what they want as there is such a large selection. Most specs can be accommodated if the prospective buyer is patient. Currently there are 112 Chims on PH classifieds, (where I found mine) with a relatively smaller number of all other models. (Tuscans are next highest at 45 with Griffs at 44) Are the other models selling any quicker, I wonder...

P.S.... There's a 500 on right now for a fiver under 21k! Sure, it looks really nice but is it going to sell at that price?????

I bought my first one about three weeks ago - the first one I saw admittedly, just fell for its charms and the colour was right. As it happens I got a good one.
I have found the same as you with selling almost any car on Autotrader......sometimes you get a sniff, sometimes you don't. Doesn't seem to be any logic to it. I sold a high mileage Saab in 24 hours, yet a nice low mileage RAV4 took about 6 weeks.

Picked up mine last week. My first TVR and I'm not good with the spanners so decided to go to a dealer for the added reassurance. They seem to be selling cars left right and centre (and they are considered to be the far from the cheapest) so maybe private sales are suffering more than trade??

Hope yours is going to plan Stuart!

Mine is now the MAF is sorted - hoping to improve on 120 miles in one tank!

Bought my first TVR in April - also from a dealer for the added comfort of a warranty. Paid top dollar but have got a very very tidy car - new chassis, carpets, FSH etc. Was very wary of a private buy although I know there must be many good private deals out there.

I purchased my Chim 2 weeks ago.

Ed, car is fantastic other than a few niggles with the roof. Simon has arranged to get them sorted as soon as I can get back down there. Glad yours is sorted. The thickness of my wallet seems to be decreasing to the tune of about 25 mpg so not too bad I think.

Btw, while I was picking up my car from Fernies, my brother turned up and bought a Griff. Considering their rep as being very expensive, they seem to be doing alright!!

Sold my 400 two weeks ago. Had lots of enquiries and two offers on the same day. It's all about the price. I kept it very slightly low to get a quick sale and it worked. Was a good car but it only started shifting when I put it on at 8,250 At 9k I got no interest.
