Hi all - on the verge of parting with my hard earned for an S2. Before I make the leap just wondering if there are any S2 owners in the South West region (I’m Taunton based) that would be willing to share their experience and maybe allow me to see their pride and joy? Would be much appreciated - cheers Phil
I recommend joining the TVR Car Club. Most regions have monthly meetings. If you go along to your local one you will probably find somebody with a similar car willing to show you what to look for, they may even be willing to go look at it with you, you may even get lucky and find somebody familiar with the car you're considering.
Hi guys and thanks for your suggestions, I intend joining the club and have arranged to view the one suggested tomorrow morning - it’s an hour from me so very local really.
In no rush, so prepared to hold on until the right one turns up.
Been studying the S series form and being an ex-mechanic I know my way around a car, but if there are any tips they will be most welcomed.
Cheers

BIG tip. Before you buy a car you MUST buy The Essential Buyers Guide TVR S Series from Amazon. Written by one of the experts in this marque (Richard Kitchen, Southways Automotive, Portsmouth) with contributions from a few of us.
Damn, I was down in Taunton recently with mine (my son is in Bishops Hull) but not due in the S again this year.

So is it always a leap of faith ?
No, buy one with documented proof of chassis repair work carried out by a known/respected workshop or plenty of before/after photo's if owner did repairs himself.Or, you allow in the price you pay for repairs inevitably being needed, sooner rather than later
Phone or message Richard @ Southways Automotive, it's his job he fixes them, get it from "the horses mouth" so to speak.
