No.

It looks good, but get a discount to replace the number plates as they are not legal.

It is an S3C , and looks and reads very well apart from the wheels and No plate.

Is the price quoted 'buy it now' if so looks good value and well worth investigating.


Good luck !

It's the 3rd (or more) time he's listed it recently so he clearly wants it moved. I looked at it before buying mine a couple of weeks back, by that I mean I looked at the advert, not the car! (just to be clear) but at the time I wanted an S1 not an S3 as i don't like the dashboard switches..

It looks tidier than mine, the plates wouldn't bother me as my bikes all have B&W plates on too and it's Black (so faster obviously LOL).

I think it reached around £3750 when I was watching it, I can see he's had 7 offers and hasn't taken them so he must have ~£4000 in mind but he £4100 he is asking seems OK.

I bought one less than 25 miles from his, it isn't as "pretty" but has had a lot of work done recently and only 37000 miles. I paid £3800 for mine so that seems a reasonable price..

If you come up to look at it/buy it, stop by for a cuppa, I'm only in Gloucester (~20 miles from there)

Illegal maybe, but plod won't throw the key away - I have "show" plates on mine too ;-)

I would say no it has AFM, but as I noticed the UK 2.9s don´t look like the 2.9s in sweden.
Think my s3 was the only s3c at the Euro trip?

I think that StewMc has an S3C but looks different because it has an S4 bonnet. Manfred - you aren't expecting to see two the same are you?
Best regards

Thanks for replying folks. I'm finding it impossible to get hold of the chap that is selling it. He's not answering his phone or my e mails. I see there's a new offer pending for it on e bay. So he's obviously considering that but I wish he'd at least contact us to discuss it.

Hi All - I offered this guy full price and he didn't get back to me - then said it was sold - then came back and said it wasn't - by which time I'd bought another one.

No, that would be outrageous! TVR´s should be oue of a kind wink
My s3C don´t have the AFM next to the airfilter, don´t know how the UK s3c look like never looked under Stew´s bonnet.
