.... what would have been the next model released?

Were there any prototypes in the pipiline?

Any sketches lying around?

There's a picture of a targa Sagaris (or was it a convertible) somewhere. There was also talk of a Cerbera mk 2 and you'd hope a derivative of the Typhon would have been released one day....

As I posted earlier today, TVR the company are still active, with latest changes being made as of last monday.

Of course, they are not as they were.

I seem to remember someone saying about a Tuscan MK3 with the curved lights which looked awful apparently? Former staffer posting here?

[V8 GRF]

What is called the Tuscan MkIII I believe is the Tuscan shape similar to that of the Tuscan Convertible with covered headlights and the 'swoopy' 'vert dashboard.

Personally I think they'd run out of ideas and needed something totally new, the T400/440/Typhon shape was a dead end imo.

[Grodecki]

I swear I read someone saying about a Tuscan with the curved rear lights, like those on the T350 and Sagaris? Perhaps I've just gone mad.

I quite liked the Typhoon other than the seemingly random placement of rear lights.

Well these lights are different from the original but were on the Tuscan II are you thinking of these?

EDITED to say I'd hotlinked to a pic and they substituted that one, it's not the one I linked to


Try this one instead

He may well be, but the original picture was taken in the factory before it shut down.

Or a fake - wasnt it spelt typhon, not typhoon? (I really am not sure, so I stand to be corrected!)

[YKB]

The Typhon was the earlier car. Pic above is of the 3D CAD of the Typhoon (see number plate). Also existed as a scale model, but that's all I believe.

Is that a small bucket and sponge model ... at least you can buy a real one of those

Those rear lights have been nicked right off a Ferrari

Overall it doesn't look THAT bad...just really not TVR like.

Looks like an Aston at the back.

I'd still have bought one though .

[V8 GRF]

I've seen that model it looks quite good in the flesh and a lot better then the CAD render. They were also working on a CerberaII as well.
