Blimey! I didn't think anyone bothered checking the TVR website anymore.


Anyway, TVR quote:

Perhaps most noteworthy is the touch-screen digital centre console, which integrates a fully reworked climate control, DAB radio and audio system, satellite navigation and Bluetooth telephone. Further improvements and alterations are to be completed before production commences.



Bluetooth, bloody bluetooth! Like that's going to be a load of use in a TVR

I spent a week driving around with a Sagaris and it's lost a little of it charm as it ages.

I used to love the Sag but it dating very rapidly. It just looks a little small compared to a GT3 or a Gallardo.

It several years old and it now showing it, whereas the Cerbera still have a little something.

Many will disagree with my view, but if it around £50K it going to be a very hard fought battle for buyers. You could pick up a nice GT3 and it won't be long before R8's fall to £50K.

[Jurgen Schmidt]

Agreed, probably speaks volumes for my social life, but I have been checking the website daily for a while now.
Note to self, get out more.

advances in build processes = nicked some poor Belgians car

Great to see some 'movement' from TVR.

But am I the only one that thinks the new interior is hideous?

If only the rest of the outfit was as good as its press releases.

'Inimitable British sports car maker TVR today previewed the revised pre-production prototype Sagaris, the company's hugely appealing flagship model.'

So hugely appealing they've sold how many exactly?


ETA: 'As a result, all new TVRs now come with an uncompromising three-year/36,000 mile warranty.'

Which new TVRs would they be then?

Dear me, it's pure pantomime, a fantasy company making imaginary cars. They have even imagined 'prolonged performance, build quality and durability'!

good to see they are serious

ie current model range = tuscan and tuscan convertible...

please guys it doesn't cost that much to keep a website of all things up to date...

or are they going to be sale soon aswell

Announcing bluetooth sat/nav is only
1 totally inconsequential
2 Way behind the times on being particulary exciting/interesting...

Why do they still bother playing around...

WHEN can you buy one?
How much?

until the above ACTUALLY happpens, we should all go back to sleep.

More crap from the OXO fraternity - how come the 'contact TVR' will not work.


He is a three time loser - once bankrupted himself, then bankrupted smelly, next will attempt to bankrupt some-one else.

The car that TVR used as the launch car was infact a car that was sitting in the factory when the receivers came in,the launch car had a £2,500 deposit on from a Belgian dealer

yep, i disagree. the very last cerb is about 6 years old now, i dont understand your comparison?? im a fan of porcshes, but they simply lack the effort and commitment needed to drive the sagaris or any other tvr quickly.

Just out of interest is there any proof of this allegation, or is it just hearsay?

Not true, the very last Cerb was built during 2006 and was registered just before Christmas 2006 on a 56 plate, therefore is only coming up to 2 years old.

Boss Cerb's is a 2005 on an 05 plate, so that's 3 years old.

And there were a few made during 2004 as the last main run-out.

I am aware that this is not the release of a new model but if this is the "most noteworthy" aspect then that is a shame.

I lusted after and bought a Cerbera on the basis that the interior was nothing like I had ever seen before and coupled with the exterior created a car like nothing else on the road.

A digital centre console (which in the pictures looks like a last minute add on) in place of a swooped dash or uniquely designed controls would be more likely to put me off than entice me to buy one......

Well it's one of those questions that I'm sure Sprint will ask
