It's '96, that lives on the coast, has 50k on the clock, and a 'difficult' interior. And it's £14k.

Perhaps the chassis is perfect, after all the paint looks good. But you'd still have to deal with the blood red interior.

I'm sure it's streets ahead of my car, but it's not a cheap asking price.

My car has that interior but also has red carpets to match, no grey.

I never considered that people wouldn't like it. Maybe because my car is silver it makes a difference......?

Probably not, but I still like it. smile

Looks to be the same one that's advertised at a well known marque specialist.

i like it also, a 96 car had better chassis protection than later ones, and 50k is good millage, it shows the car hasnt been sitting around, always a good thing

And the ad says it hasn't been used in wet weather even with 52k. Wonder why people feel the need to put that when at some time, it must have been caught out in the rain? Just sayin....

I wouldn't be concerned about it affecting re-sale of the car or anything. certainly for me the interior colour is a long way down the list of priorities and if the engine, chassis etc we're I good nick id not be put off by red.

Be nice to know what sort of reassurance you get about the hidden areas of the chassis! was all this work carried out with the body off as I don't believe you can effectively refurbish or maintain the whole cerb chassis without at some point lifting the body.

think the interior looks good, stands out which a TVR is supposed to do.

I did some research on it and it is well known to Hexham HC up untill 2011 then it was sold to a guy called Sam Dunning. He traded it in when he got a job in London and didn't want to take the car. Apparently be wants to buy it back.I was going to go see it but it was 250 miles away

I vaguely recall Hexham HC having one like this for sale at about that time - I might be wrong but their one which was noted as being Steve Heath's at one point. The interior colour was the stand out item.

I've spoken to the chap selling it he has sent me pictures of most of its history sounds like its good.
Who's Steve Heath ? (Not wanting to offend anyone)
It's a long trip to see it around 3 hours but there is nothing closer to see so I venture south to see that interior in the flesh
