Looking on the how many left website, there are significantly fewer T350 Ts, Tuscan convertibles and Tuscan S, so it is just not about numbers.
I didn't say I didn't like it, just don't get it.
You are right.
I think it is a lot about the look as well.
T350 looks the poverty Sagaris for some.
Quite a big amount of Tuscans were built and Tuscan S and Vert look not different enough to it.
Nethertheless I think T350/Tuscan/Cerbera are still real bargains.
Can´t last that long anymore that they´ll finally lose their Speed 6 stigma as well.

I agree ... I had a Sag for 2 years and to be honest it didn't do a lot for me .. Yes it was a lovely car, it attracted loads of attention ( which I didn't really want!!!) . It 's probably a great track car , but I'm not into track days .... I like my cars too much and I'm not a millionaire. I started with a Chim 400 , spec'd a Tuscan Convertible with the factory in 2006 (now a 4.5 SS) but bought a Chim 450 in 2007 because it's more practical. Happy with my current stable smile

I don´t get it why some don´t get it.

Very, very few built, they perform very well and have got the look.
Very simple recipe.
See them to appreciate further.
If you like it or not.

Bang on the money!

Is your "garage" out of date , because you don't seem to have a Sag in your stable smile

Now sold - although str8six have a lovely orange one just in stock- 10k miles from new
That orange one is fantastic,

I am very tempted to have it to drive until the new one comes and then if lucky I can keep both, but at £80k I think it is very toppy. It is however the best one for sale today IMHO.

In 2 years you will be able to buy a brand new Griffith or a 12 year old Sagaris for similar money... I know this maths seems to work for some cars 911 Turbos but are these values really sustainable for TVRs? (Silly question I know no-one has a crystal ball).

Why has the silver Sagaris at Hexam not sold with lower mileage and 75k?

My thoughts, which could be/likely to be wrong, are that the colour is very boring for Sag and the dealer rep not as strong as Str8six.

Plus it's up North.

As I understand, it is a real peach of a car.

I bought my T350C from Tony at Hexham. I drove up from Cambridge, worth the drive. He preps his cars well and is TVR through and through. I think his location may put some people off but he usually prices them accordingly to take into account his location.

Looks a nice car at Hexam which surprised me it hadn't sold as it looked better value than the other cars at £80k. I have just brought a Sagaris which I'm really please with. Got a few super cars and never had a TVR before. Great fun and love the low connected driving position. I couldn't live with it every day but for a blast up the hills on a Sunday afternoon it ticks the box.
Nice to get a thumbs up from other motorist, instead of the occasional wking gesture when driving some of my other cars!
