Hi, I used to have a Chimaera until someone crashed into me and wrote it off. Anyway, thought I'd try a V6 so I'm looking for an S Series; is anyone interesting in selling or know where one is for sale. I live in Stafford but willing to travel. Thanks in advance. John

Keep your eye on this site, someone normally reports any S models coming up on ebay or at auction and we can often find bits about its history which would help you. If there is someone closer they may well do a preliminary visit for you. They occasionally come up for sale direct on Pistonheads or on the TVROC site. At this time of year they can go quite quickly, and if they dont....!!!

There are 3 S's on ebay at the moment including a new listing near Cardiff that looks very nice.

I'd be a touch wary of that one!

Yes seen them, ones a project which I'm not after to be honest; one has a Cosworth engine in - no thanks; and the other white one is in my opinion, a bit pricey. Thanks for the heads-up though, much appreciated. 👍

Opportunity to buy an S4c ................ in my opinion the best looking of all the S series. Definitely the best of the V6 S's.
Would say price is very reasonable if it's in as good a condition as the photos show ............. and very low mileage.
Would change the seats and put dash back to dark veneer though.
Got to be worth a phone call to ask a few more questions.

Tempting, but it's the rubber bumper model, so not a classic. smile

Why dont you like the cosworth one?

Did you want to stay 100% original, if not that one would likely keep pace with a v8.. maybe..
