Anyone know this car
Discussion
I would be interested to here from anyone out there who may have owned or worked on this car. Prior to me owning it it was on a private plate 2 DXD.
Any information would help me piece together its history in readiness for my legal battle against the dealer (scum) who sold it to me.

Hi John,
The car was bought from a main TVR dealer, but since joining the TVRCC I have discovered that the car is 'ringed'. The dealer refuses to offer a refund, so I currently have both the Police and Trading Standards looking into the situation. I will then take the dealer to court.

Hi again John,
The car is a 400se but on a 1982 reg, also the VIN plate and chassis number belong to a 1982 Tasmin 200 which was written off in 1991. I am in contact with the factory who have been, and continue to be, extremely helpfull. The engine number has also been changed, and the gearbox numbers have been removed. And the dealer says he has done nothing wrong !

Thanks for all the advise people. Sorry to hear of your problems Steve, e-mail me when you have time.
I have found the production numbers on the inside of the doors, and the factory have cross matched these to a few possible matches. The Police are currently looking into these. I will post more when I know. The dealer in question still refuses to except any responsibilty and has passed it over to his solicitor. Looks like I'm in for a long fight.

Nick,
They are located near Kings Lynn in Norfolk, and yes, it does look as if the car will be claimed by the insurance company who paid out on the claim.
I'm sure that Ted will censor this thread soon do to me naming this dealer, but Ted please understand, I don't wish your site any harm, I just don't know what else to do to warn people about the b*stard.
