Hi Rene, the one in Holland is for sale a long time now(also on the Club site), makes you wonder, sorted car by the looks of it, good price...
(sorry to go of topic a bit)
btw: were you at the Continental ?
Indeed, don't know why, maybe its because you can buy "cheap" Chimaera and or a Griffith (RHD) for that money and then you have a V8...(sorry to go of topic a bit)
btw: were you at the Continental ?
or maybe a Tamora for that money.
or maybe older models are more of interest like the Vixen range or Grantura's?
or the fans already have a TVR and other people not so fast interested in TVR or don't even know them?
fact is they are massive underrated me thinks, you can get a lot of pure TVR car for not that much if you want.
No, sadly I was not on the Continental, Í have to go out more... ;-)
I was there in 1999 I believe, this year I was thinking about it but not got the power to step in my car and go...
Just found the book with pictures of that day, I wanted to orientate in TVR more and not only pictures
In 2000 I bought my first TVR a Griffith 4.3 BV
I also see now my favorite car from that day, a brown/aubergine? Vixen with some black parts, plate DR-55-...

Not actively for sale but who knows when you ask...Lovely car (not for sale per chance ?, would happily marry her, to stay on topic!!)

the car in 1999 and later spotted in 2010 by someone is the same car.no, I've seen some more with that, maybe its a ex US version...it are turn-signal lights, see here a example (have better on my pc but this is from the web)
Some old TVR's like grantura's etc could use indeed some cabin pressure release system, maybe that's why most Vixen's have those flabby roof openings...not a fan of those soft openings.
Lats week I saw a old TVR with lovely helicopter? air vent in the rear window which help for release air.
some racers drill a lot holes in the window but then when it rains or washing the car water pours in, those helicopter things could be a point to look at.
