Gauging interest on my TVR

Recommended Posts

I have said I will never sell this car, its an appreciating classic IMO and I have sold several of those in the past and had regrets almost straight away on all of them, however I want to get the Supra in the garage for the winter and so this might have to go, or go into storage

 

As many of you know I dont do things by halves and this car has had thousands spent on it by myself to get it to this stage, it is a wonderful asset and starts first time every time

 

TVR S3 in deep blue

1991 on a very nice short reg number

just over 60,000 miles

Long MOT - Just over 9 months left on it

Tax - No Tax with new rules

 

Huge file of service history including a full body off chassis restoration in 2014, this included new outriggers and a full Waxoyl

 

Engine

 

2.9 V6, the garage that completed the works are convinced it has had cam work as the response from the engine is so crisp with a tell tale chunky idle

New fuel pump fitted this month after the only failure I have had on this car

New battery earlier this year

Full stainless exhaust with an incredible sound

 

Chassis

 

As mentioned body off restoration at a specialist in Sheffield in 2014 with new outriggers added

New stainless steel chassis bolts added at this time

 

Wheels

 

Standard wheels refurb'd in graphite grey, in mint condition

Tyres are excellent

 

Body

 

In deep blue with a few age related marks hear and there, no crazing

Was detailed before storage last autumn

Hood has a few marks and a slight split in rear plastic window

Electric boot opening

 

Interior

 

As you would expect leather has some wear, it is in two tone original colours

Radio cassette works but I rarely use it as the V6 sounds too good

Electric windows work but are slow (TVR issue)

 

The car drives like a go cart and is so much fun, feels quick being so light and sounds fantastic

 

Car was serviced back in July so ready to use or store until next summer

 

I am happy to let this go for offers over £5,000 given the time of year or I will consider an NA Auto or TT Auto as PX, cash either way

Cheers Dean I really do love this car and am very tempted however I'm going to go travelling on Tuesday till January 2nd and don't have the room to store it as the 911 will be staying the garage while I'm away.

 

I've really been wanting for a nice soft top roadster as a weekend toy and even bought a gt6 a month ago on eBay only for the seller to pull out. I'm going to have to really think about this overnight as this certainly ticks all the boxes.
