On the flea now a 390se FHC.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1990-TVR-TASMIN-390i-SE-FHC-5-SPEED-PAS-ONLY-390i-SE-FHC-KNOWN-TO-EXIST-/280988781381?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item416c3c8b45 I didnt know such a beast existed but it was apparently built to special order. Looks nice but at £9K it should be. If its a one off factory special then the rarity is going to make it worth a few bob , so maybe the price is not too bad? Can anyone enlighten me on this car, I cant afford it but i'm curious to know more about these one off specials 
sorry trying to get link to work http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1990-TVR-TASMIN-390i-SE-...
CAVEAT EMPTOR for me this cars all wrong. The body shape and bonnet is wrong for such a late car and it is only rumoured that TVR built cars to this spec. Without solid documentory evidence to prove otherwise You have to assume that It's a 350i FHC with a 390 engine and horrid badges and pay accordingly ( a hell of a lot less than the sticker price).
Hi -Well Simon as you say you learn something new every day!! I stand corrected 
and I hope you will forgive my cynicism in earlier posts but as a TVR enthusiast you will know yourself that there are a lot of TVR's around claiming to be a "one off special" or "a factory prototype" or "owned by the Queen of Sheba" etc. As i said earlier without documentary evidence these claims should be taken with a pinch of salt but as you have said documents let me say congratulations on unearthing such a rare beast 
!! To me the car looked all wrong with a late reg but early body style and 390 engine and only rumor that TVR produced a car with such a spec is it any wonder it set my alarm bells ringing ?? Still dont like the decals but congrats and good luck with the sale
