Buying T350

[mikeerhymes]

Hey guys, just wondered if anyone could give me some feedback on the T350. currently have a VX220turbo and looking to 'upgrade' to one. In terms of reliablitity etc and common faults/problems to look out for when buying one.
many thanks!

Spend a couple of hours reading through the TVR section on here mate, there is loads of info!

I came from a VX220turbo to an Exige, then to my T350. The TVR running costs are in a different league to the other two, but then its worth it IMO!

generally i think people recommend to buy a 2004 onwards... i looked at both pre-04 models and post-04 when getting mine and went for the 04 as it had a lot of added extras and refinements that previous models were lacking. As well as engine, mechanical and electrical upgrades, little things like sun visors, finger latch on the boot opening, air-con (i think), were all added 2004 onwards.

one that's had a recent engine rebuild is also recommended i believe.

I upgraded from a vx220 turbo, never looked back

As much as i loved my vx its just boring in conparison

Mines done 32k and is my daily drive, so far its just as
reliable as any other sports car.
