Hi
In bit of a dilemma, knowing myself I will most prob be wanting some thing else later on in the year, would be great to get some good driving done in the S2 during hopefully a good summer, but after which if i put up for sale might not be a great time to sell if you know what I mean. I purchased it after the summer mind you. So not sure if just best to try sell now & miss out on really enjoying the car ?

Enjoy and Keep it you know you want too - if you want something else have that as well!!!! The other half is entitled to more than one pair f shoes so surely the same goes for us and cars 
r missus P is reading this over my shoulder 
I'd be tempted to keep it until July/August and then try to sell it then if you still want to. Alternatively advertise it for sale in the run up to SCH and then take it along for prospective buyers to have a look at...
Sadly, with the state of things at the moment you may find it hard to shift at the moment what with there being a recession/credit crunch mixed with a cold winter. Certainly for a strong price.
I can't imagine you'll lose much by waiting and, as you say, this would give you a chance to enjoy the better weather whilst still getting a crack at the busier summer market and (perhaps) a slightly better selling environment.
All depends on how much you want to change.

I doubt whether anyone will buy it this week unless you turn it into a half track or maybe add skies.
Well I was in the same boat as you before Christmas. Should I sell in the Spring or have one more year.
I've looked at PH classified and a number of them on there I seem to remember on the website a year ago when I bought mine. I agree with the above unless you sell for a ridiculously low price it may prove difficult to sell. These are strange times in which we live.
When the weather clears in a few weeks time go out for a drive and find out why you bought the car in the first place. You won't even remember you made this post.
Oh I should add I've decided to keep it long term.

Mark is quite right, we can have as many cars as they can have shoes - it's obvious really 
I think that by posting, you know the answer. If you really wanted to sell, you'd do it and face going into hiding for a while. You don't want that. Soon, it will be dry, then warm, then sunny - all that is entirely irrelevant to those poor tivless souls. Please don't join them, it's simply not worth it. Keep your tiv, you know it makes sense.
I think there are self help groups who can offer support if need be

Thanks for all the replies, my TVR is a toy so another as well as it is out of the question, I am not that greedy lol. My thoughts were to sell it & other daily use car & buy something else & just have one car. My daughter might pass her test soon & get a car, if so that would make 4 cars in house hold.
You`s are right I think we all NEED some bloody warm dry weather so we can really enjoy top off motoring etc.
If I were to place it up for sale it would be priced at top end of market due to its condition.

Keep her Marty... dont think about selling until you've had a chance to drive in sunshine with the roof down through a narrow village street or a long lane. head into the NY Moors when the weather picks up, join us for some blasts out with the NE TVRCC (or the Teeside lot)...
then you'll not need anyones opinion... you'll know

The warm weather driving thought excites me! think there is a Teeside meet very soon but not keen on going if weather is poor. Car is taxed for ages & just renewed insurance so she is ready to be driven any time....then you'll not need anyones opinion... you'll know

I'm sure the Teeside lot meet at the same time as the NE which is great for combined runs but a bu99er if you want to attend both... anyway it will be this sunday. I'm planning to be at the NE meet near Newcastle airport if the weather allows... see you there sometime eh ?

Sure K, I think the weather this week end is going to be rubbish.K
