Not sure if anyone has seen this.

Less than £500 more than the Verde Ithca one at Target.

Could be worth bringing it back to the UK.

Putting off buyers so you get a good price Shaun? wink

Every car has a story though, so what if its been tracked or is high miles, if its been damaged, so long as the repair is done right there's no longer a problem.

Hope it comes back to the UK though.

Only pulling your leg,

Yeah it would be a long way to go view a car, hopefully the seller is honest up front about it though, I've travelled 500 miles to buy 5 cars now and luckily all were fine and as described, have heard a few people not so lucky though.

i spent about 8 months looking for mine, researching the history of each available Sag and weighing up options. i don't imagine anyone would jump into a car like this without doing the proper research.

Although it is not necessary to avoid Cat D's at all costs, it does require extra attention and scrutiny. As long as the owner is up front, then i see no problem in purchasing this car.

This is the reason that the green one has been for sale for over a year. the current owners are impolte and leave a bad taste in the mouth of anyone who contacts them. It is suggested that they are less upfront about what still needs to be done to the car.

I don't understand why people are eager to see it back in the UK though, personally i think that it is only a good thing for values, rarity and profile if they are spread throughout the world

This was one of the cars I went to see when looking for a Sagaris.
I bought another one through the Belgian TVR dealer which was cheaper and better in my opinion but I think the price shown for this dark grey sagaris is still negotiable.

it has done 25.000km. and the overall condition is good but there are a few things that need to be taken care of.
if anybody is interested, just let me know and I can send you the details and the pictures I took.

The guy who owns it has more TVR's and is known in the Dutch TVR community so the car can not be compared to the Verde Green one, IMHO.

Think your currency converter is out of date, there is a difference of £4,078 going by XE rates today.

Price in euros of €54950 and €49950 is £44,846 and £40,768.

Except that the non Target advert mentions 54k Euro as selling price, which doesn't reflect to the 41950 GBP... And given you'd buy in the Netherlands, they'd definitely want the Euros, not the GBP...

The verde green car was 31k at one point with the same dealer and has gained a fair bit of value by not selling wink Their plan of continually raising the price might not be the best idea..
