Hello to all you tvr lovers from the porsche side.
Just a quick one for you.
I am considering a T350 (drive past one every day and am stunned by its beauty)and was just wondering what your thoughts were on milage.
There are a few 2003s'priced in the low £20k's with over 20k miles on,are these a good buy or should I stick to the below 10k mile examples.
I have spotted one with 45k on which is nice to see.
I am only curious due to the amount of tuscans which have had rebuilds around 25k.
Also how is the reliability (used to a bullit proof 911)
Now before I get linched and told this thread has been covered,I am having problems with the search facility.
Thank you all very much for your time,and who knows the T350 may just be the one to drag me away from the much loved porsche.
Oh and just one more thing Targa or coupe.
Cheers fick

I asked almost the exact same question about 5 posts down on the board...

Bullet proof 911... don't say that to 996 owners with RMS failure...

welcome.

Loads of threads on the S6. The only way is to try one - book a test drive, a good one will reward like all other TVRs do. Newer (2004 onwards) are more reliable and don't take too much notice of the ill informed slagging. It is important that you find one that has been run in with respect and serviced according to TVR schedules. Loads available in the classified on this site and ask on here for peoples knowledge of the specific car that may be of interest, it's surprising who knows what about individual cars. Hope you take the plunge. I can promise you will never regret it.

I'll let you off with 993.... IMHO there hasn't been a true 911 since... the 997 is more a rear engined 928 replacement... but I'm off topic... and don't want to get flamed...

Take a drive in the T350, it's back to a raw british sports car with that's useable.... oh and a few of the used cars out there have the balance of the used car warranty... worth it for peace of mind!

GuyMark's T350 looks nice,in your thread speedyellow.
So what does an engine rebuild cost,I'll open up a savings account.
Joint account for the car but not the misses.he he
