So who's going to snap up Mr Orange?
Discussion
Until now, I could have sworn that my Sag was the only one that came out of the factory with the "Electric Lumbar" Sparco style seats, not the douche pump. Now I'm wondering how many of the original launch day cars had these fitted. Graham, do you have all the launch day car spec sheets, and do the sheets specify the type of seats fitted? Would love to know what my cars siblings had fitted.

Mr Orange for sale, someone's going to be happy I'm sure it will be a great car and if I was in the market for one I would of snapped this up already.

it's a bit of a trade off really.
on the one had you are getting a car that will have been extremely well looked after and no expense spared
on the other hand you are getting a car that has been driven by every journalist/critic on the island. and you just know it's been ragged to s**t by every single one of them
hmm, fresh or experienced? tight or worn in? virgin or slut?
hard to say. iv always stood by the thought that with a less abused option you are not paying for other peoples mistakes

Someone snapped it up then, now marked as sold.
And so they should have - great car at a great price. Worth loads more as it was kept like it should have been for a car with such a history.I drove it a number of times when Tim owned it (he now works for me), it was bought off him only a couple of months ago by a mate of mine Lee (a serial TVR owner) and he spent a load on it with Jason. I would have bought it if I would have known lee was going to sell it, it is the reason I bought mine as I used to see it when I came into work.

Im tempted by the twin of Mr orange at RG just now, after seeing Paul's red one last night I've fallen back in love with The TVR!
What a car.
If you do not need dealer facilities I know someone who is about to put theirs on the market - send me a PM with your email address and I will introduce you. Cracking Sag in a very rare and one of the best coloursWhat a car.

I can't seem to send you a PM, I am interested to find out more thanks, what colour is it? Cheers
the funny thing is that i couldn't give it beans last night cause it was so wet and it's still tempting you.
there was a hint of longing in your voice as your were showing me round and schooling me on my own car, but i never imagined that it would be this bad
on a serious note, thanks again for imparting your knowledge on me.
And ignore Mark he's just jealous that i have a boot

you also have servo assisted brakes... 
its not a replacement for the outright madness and speed of the Noble on track, however I have been longing for a car that stirs the soul on every single drive, a great sound, great looks and that unmistakable sideways action that the TVR dishes out drive after drive, i wont be taking it on track or modifying, if i go for it this will be for touring/hooning only and as a collectable for life, so ill have the best of both from two of my favourite manufacturers.
Ah I see you'll be swinging both ways. Nice to start building up a fleet though. Pauls just jelous I have...er.....er manual windows... yeah!

you know, the more i look at Mr Orange the more i realise what an amazing deal i got for mine.
4k less and half the miles, same age
i think you should go for it, just think of it as a replacement for the BMW
lol, i just got blamed by a customer for the current state of the banking industry. i'm just a cashier...
