Info on T350's for sale & what to look for when viewing

[duff-man]

Hi all,

I'm in the market to buy a T350 with a budget of ~£20k, does anyone have any information on the following cars?

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1339662.htm
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1127647.htm
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1329438.htm
http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/2009...

Any opinions on them also appreciated.

Finally apart for the usual stone chips around the front end, wear and tear on the interior and the way the owner treats the car (warm-up etc...) is there any thing to look out for when viewing?

Thanks,
Mark

hi,just my personal taste,i prefare the rolex blue car,it looks more like purple if im not mistaken,the other blue car,for me,the milage is too high and being a 2003 model,i dont think it has air con,sun visors,not that they're much use,lol.it may have,but i dont think so.it has had engine work,but to me,its not just the engine which does the milage! the red car looks nice,but im not sure the t350 suits it.this is just my personal taste. you will find many topics on buying t350's if you scroll down a couple of pages,all i can say,is after 1 year of ownership,im in love with it more today than when i bought it.

Thats PHer Toby O'Dells car, awesome car and a very fastidious owner. IMHO you'd be hard pressed to find better!

[Skipe]

They are all nice cars IMHO, I mean it's a T350 - they're all amazing!

Personally I think Laser Blue is one of the best colours and the guy seems to have put some serious money into that car so I don't think it matters that it's an 03 - the mod's in 2004 make little difference - as stated earlier the sunvisors are and luggage covers!

Things to look for you've pretty much got nailed but maybe look at where and how it's been serviced etc, I got my car inspected by someone in the know and it gave me a big piece of mind.

If it was me it would be Toby's car (which is nearly as nice as mine ) or the Laser Blue.

Good luck

Hi,

The laser blue one is mine, I used to use it daily but since starting a new job that involves lots of travel it's not getting used so unfortunately it has to go.

It does have the luggage cover and sun visors and is a late 03, not that they make much difference, as pointed out above the sun visors are useless!

Lot's of money spent on it recently, mechanically everything is pretty much brand new, any questions give me a call.

I agree with zippee and skipe - got to be the third one in your list!

Feel free to quiz me about it, but I guess it's a lot further to travel than the others in your list. Happy to show you around it if you do fancy a day in St.Albans!

I bought a T350T a year ago, found it on here.
I was keen on two at the time and was not sure what to look for. I enlisted the help of Paul Forrest at X Works Service, Wesham, near Blackpool.
Paul used to be the Factory Service Manager so knows as much as any man about the TVR Marque.
He ruled one out after travelling to see it and advised me to buy another which I have not regretted. Wrecked it yesterday sadly but walked away just a bit sore and pride in tatters. 4000 mile car that I had just spent£3K on and was mint, shame.
I advise a Targa as when the roof is off they are so nice. I had a Chimaera before and like the fresh air and sun from time to time. The T has more headroom too.
The T350 IMHO is beautiful from all angles.
I will find out if my car is a write off shortly and if so will be bidding for another T350T, maybe better not say too much more then!!

Thats guttin mate I love the colour of your car its just gorgeous, loud but classy in every way!

Oh man!!! That is terrible news!

I think I saw it in the latest edition of Sprint magazine, was that you?

I was still toying with the idea of prising it out of your hands

im sure it is a great car,but to suggest theres winners and losers when you've sold your car,is in bad taste. some people just prefare different cars to others,enjoy the people carrier,p.s. a cerb will carry 4,unless you plan being busy.
