One of the last Tuscan S's registered 2007 - how much?
Discussion
Currently own a Tuscan S registered April 2007. It's done 5000 miles and is in mint condition outside and in. Always garaged, etc. Serviced by Paul and Heath at X-Works.
Colour is Alfa Romeo Sterling Grey Metallic with anthracite full hide, it's a Targa with the convertible style dash, small boot lip and bilstein springs/dampers.
I recently viewed a Noble M400 with an idea of moving the TVR on as I'm just not using it enough. However, the dealer quoted me £26K as a trade-in, which was a huge shock.
Anyone any idea of private sale prices at the moment?
I'm told it's one of the last ones if not the last one to be made but I've not been able to get the full details.

I think rather unfortunately a number of issues are conspiring against you at this time. Obviously TVR, as they were, no longer exist which will clearly have a negative impact on the value of the marque and warranty etc?
Combine this with ridiculous fuel prices, proposed increases in road tax fund and the general poor state of the economy and its not a good time to be selling this type of vehicle.
It is a buyers market and I'm afraid to say your car is only worth what someone is prepared to pay for it, regardless of what you genuinely think it is worth - sorry

hi,
I'm currently looking for a 2S, might be interested.
Can you mail me some pictures and detailed description? Any warranty left?

Dealers have never given good trade-in prices for TVRs - I think high 20s trade-in is pretty much the norm, whereas if you could find the right buyer, you might be talking 35k to sell it?
(but i'm not an expert, so numbers may be wrong - I have a 2Sconv, which I'm assuming I could get 35k for if I tried to sell...)

I doubt it>>> The most i was offed for mine was £26,000 when it was a year old, it is a T2S Convert as well. The market at the moment is s(but i'm not an expert, so numbers may be wrong - I have a 2Sconv, which I'm assuming I could get 35k for if I tried to sell...)

Answering a few points.
Thanks for the hatred, not sure why ! hee hee...
I wouldn't necessarily drive the Noble anymore than the Tuscan, however, I do want to go back to a proper track car as I might be selling my M3 CSL to get myself into a run-of-the-mill diesel.
Agreed about pricing, I think privately it would be worth around the £35K mark, that's what the dealer advised. However, the offer of £26K for a mint car is far off a private sale. For a car with such low miles that needs nothing doing to it.
I may just hang on for another year at least until values hopefully settle. There appears to be some good bargains to be had in the Tuscan market and I for one was tempted by cheap MK1 to run around in and keep the MK2 in the garage.

Hi - My local dealer wanted £29.5k for my 2005 3.6 after LOTS of haggling. it had done 4500 miles and was absolutely mint - In spectraflair silver.
£26k for a 2007 does seem VERY low but I guess they are probably worried about warrantying it, etc. £28-£31k seems much more realistic from a dealer.
There are some very nice cars sitting out there in dealers though which can probably be had for £32k including convertibles right now - Our lovely summer weather is probably not helping the cause.
