350i FHC Auto?

[andy280ifhc]

Does anyone know if they made a 350i FHC Auto
I would be interested in buying one if I can get in it.
At 6`6" and 18 stone V8`s are a very tight fit for me.No clutch should make it better.
My 280i FHC is 4sp and I don`t have a leg room problem in that, my friends V8 5sp is very tight and not really safe for me to drive.

Many thanks

To my knowledge the factory never made autos on the 350 range especially on the FHC. However, there was one about for sale on the TVR webmartpage although it was a conv.

Yes they made a few - I saw one in 1995 in blue!

Saw an Auto Tasmin at the Dorset Wedge themed meet earlier this year. Wasn't a FHC, but I think the owner was open to offers. Go for it !

Not sure if it was a 280 or 350, still sounded nice though.

As a fellow tallish driver (6'3" 15St) I can say that it may be worth looking into modifying the pedal box and mabye fitting a steering wheel with a flat at the bottom, as I 'just' fit comfortably into my 350i and these are a couple of mods I was looking to do at a later date.
Also make sure the steering column is adjusted up as far as poss.

I seem to remember it was an option but only one was ever built!
