Great.
We need more pics and you need to tell us if the new one is already mentioned in this threat.
I've not seen the new car anywhere on the internet before and my registration search hasn't found it. If anyone has any info I would love to have it. The car is an 1800S from June 1966. Chassis number K18/020. Was in long-term ownership, but then sold last year to someone that couldn't use it due to a bad back, and there sold it onto me. Here's some more pictures:We need more pics and you need to tell us if the new one is already mentioned in this threat.

I bought that car from the first owner in 1972. He was a garage owner in N Yorkshire.It was a great car which was my daily driver until I sold it to a garage in Portsmouth in 1974 in exchange for a 4.2 E Type roadster. Many happy & exhilarating miles in that car (didn't have the blue stripe in those days).

£100K, but they couldn't get the tailpipe's heat reflective tape straight... 
Restored in the 90’s, it looked better than the picture, resprayed in the latest Ferrari red.
2500M with naff American tr5 engine of about 105 BHP. Soon fixed that by skimming head about a mm and fast road camshaft it went quite well after that, thankfully.
Never managed to cure water leaks from roof, but I only took it out on dry days.

So, the last weeks/days 2 long time ago stored TVR Tuscan V8 SE MAL cars came into the light, around 30 years not seen... just amazing! both LHD one in the US which went to Germany and the other one already since the 80-tish or so in Germany, pretty cool stuf.
First MAL006
in a ok-ish condition, but many little damages in the close ups (not posting those), but not to bad.

Second MAL car this week, I guess a familie member died or something, anyhow, here TVR Tuscan V8 SE MAL009 its so rare to see 2 rare MAL cars I've not seen since??? both about 30 years parked in a garage, both far from each other, but now both in Germany.
here MAL 009, which looks very good, ok 30 years parked so engine all still, but stil, wow, cool.
stil there, the seller for his familie has more pictures, but looks like a nice basis, you can clean it and refresh the engine and wires/lines and so on, or do a Total (better I guess) make over/rest.
