Red Sagaris in Classifieds

[Targarama]

Same car for sale at 2 locations - £4k price difference. Interesting. Certainly seems keenly (and fairly IMHO) priced.

Is it owned by someone on here? Lovely looking car, except one thing: What possessed you to think yellow for interior highlights was a good idea? It didn't work.

[SpeedBuzz]

Got to agree lovely looking, i was interested untill i looked at the photo inside!

That has to be one of the worst colour combos i have ever seen

[C.HARPER]

I went to Drivestyle Harrogate the other week and that car was in the garage. Seemed a little bit tatty, the armour fend needs replacing and there are a few scratches but im fussy like that. The colour combination doesnt do much for the car imo.

In their ad, Drive Style says "THE CAR IS A CREDIT TO THE PREVIOUS OWNER ,READY TO GO" - makes me wonder what to believe these days.

I would want an extra 2K off the price to get the inside sorted.

Well certainly don't believe Drivestyle!

Don't people think it's a good idea to at least clean a car before they post it up for sale ? That has to be the worst presented ad since the F40 in the Dubai builders yard

That description is a bit disappointing when it quite obviously wasn't top drawer. I didn't look at it because of the interior but like any budding owner I would have hoped for some honesty from the dealer before I made the journey!

I would just like to know if the initial purchaser was colour blind - did they think it was a green car with a brown interior?

[Hilti]

Looks like they have tried to copy the colour scheme of the Sagaris RT??

[Oat$y]

The car must have been re-sprayed from yellow to red!!!! or the original interior was stolen and this is all that was available from a scrapyard

Good theory - the interior would make sense then (but still be a little brash for many).

At least it's a Sagaris, what hell is a Biera?

Spanish beer?

A Biera is one of many slighty ungainly looking British sportscars currently in development. Not sure if this is 2 men in a shed or real though.

If TVR and Marcos couldn't make a go of it with today's regulations - and that is with a loyal following, and lovely styling and pretty darn good overall designs then why do these people think they can succeed? Anyone who comes on this site will soon find the formula for a car that will sell. Of course the challenge is to build it to a price (what Al Melling has tried to do).

Of course I wish all these companies the best of luck.

Ha...the inside of my car is quite tasteful by comparison!!

The vehicle was originally mine which I sold over a year ago due to financial problems. I specified the colour combination, formula red exterior, black and yellow interior. True it is not conventional to use a second colour in the interior that does not match the exterior, but this combination is beautiful and sexy, a pallet of red, yellow and black, carefully considered for an amazing imaginative sports car.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and unfortunately it seems that this forum has been written by old boring men with little sense of adventure and probably even less of ascetics and design, just a thought?
