if i was putting mine up for sale, it would be close to that price, and mine is a 400(maybe), also i know of at least one that sold for that amount.

[MJG280]

That's about the same value as mine but in pence

[TV8]

Looks good but no bids yet

[grahamw48]

I know of one (SEAC?) that sold for over £20,000 last year.

I think that's about right.

[grahamw48]

Of course it is Wyn...and that's only the starting price.

Maybe you can undercut it by a couple of quid.

Bargain really when you look at this lot.....

The TVR has so much more rarity, performance, desirability, blah, blah. It honestly baffles me.

If you know someone that can take a mould / copy then mine is stripped down to the fibreglass

I guess the wedge is just not old enough yet , the TR6 was never a good car but they just have something about them that makes them special

[pwd95]

Aye, must be the 'X-Factor'
Mind you, the big money examples have had big money spent on them by the looks, so by that token, a perfect, restored Wedge in ten years time will command the equivalent maybe.

I would think so and as you say the nicer TR6's will have had many 1000's spent on them so a 10,000 price tag is probably still a loss maker

Agreed.

I drove one or two when they were quite new, and nothing special IMO.

The earlier TR5 was a much nicer looking car, and later ones had the PI engine with that HUGE 150bhp, then down to 125bhp o the later TR6s

TVR were always way ahead of the mass-produced opposition...looks, performance and handling.

It's just a 'what's in vogue' thing. Any of our Tivs would leave a standard TR6 for dead on the road, and in fact I don't think I've witnessed ANY Triumph exceeding the speed limit o the road for at least 20 years.

[mac123yre]

wow thats 2 grand less than i spent on my one so far

[pwd95]

Got it now. I should keep hold of mine for my retirement, (about 17 years if I'm lucky enough to dodge redundancy) & spend that time getting it perfect.

Paul,

I do know a good fibreglass man but I think I'd spend the next year tracking down all the parts which would have to include the relocated handbrake mechanism!

Thanks for the offer though.
