The rims look to bling for the car. The tyres are far too low a profile and its been lowered too much, just dosnt look right somehow.... ![[Linked Image]](http://www.cruisewirral.com/gallery/uploads/01/05july/cruisewirral17030.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://www.cruisewirral.com/gallery/uploads/01/05july/cruisewirral17027.jpg)

Or a Jaguar S-Type R - they are rapid and quicker than an S8. I just traded mine in for my new Range Rover - strangely enough, the Rangie has the same engine as the S-Type R (4.2 Supercharged V8) which was just lovely!

IMO you should go for cold hard cash mate. Any new car in the equation and who knows what will happen? the scoob may get kicked to the kerb again. Although that TreVoR is sweet! How much a TVR of that age worth. If i were in your boots I'd just look at securing 17K+ in my back pocket. If it involved Swappin the range for a TVR then sellin the TVR so be it but wouldnt get another car with plans of keepin as u have the PERFECT car already and im sure all that money would really do you well

Just got this e-mail about the TVR Hi Scooby, i knwo what u mean about things getting crazy with e-mail etc, i have a bike on e-bay ending the same time as your motor and u wont belive the swaps etc i have been offered lol
milage on car is 40, 000
yep its hpi clear
its the very limited etd chrimeara 500, with the 5 ltr engine ( less then 300 made ), so you have the kudos of that, probably one of the fastest cars u can buy, 0-60 in well under 4 secs, and sounds unbelievable
no faults but it being a TVR its wise to be in the AA, they are know for not being the most reliable car in the world, i have had no trouble though, and all parts are cheap coz its basicly landrover, rover and ford parts
yes lots of history and its in the garage now having a complete servive and check over
deffo no back seats, but plenty of room behind for some PROPER ICE, which is what was going to be my next job ( i had no intention of getting rid to be honest, until i saw your motor )
tax runs out end of Aug, but depending how much is on yours etc i will happily tax it etc, mot till next year but same applies will happily put 12 months on if your car has etc
i live in conwy so only bout 45 mins away which is nothing really
Either way anymore questions feel free to ask, and good luck with what ever you decide mate catch u soon
Max torque - 350ft.lbs @ 4000rpm
Standing quarter mile - 12.2 secs
0-60 - 4.1 secs
0-100 - 10.2 secs

Do it do it do it, even if you only keep it for a short while. I would love to be able to say I'd owned a TVR.
