TVR colours and resale

[maxx-waxx]

Currently looking for a Sagaris and as with all purchases, TVRs especially, its important to ensure the that the car will be resellable.
Previous TVRs ive had always sold well, the colours being nightfire pearl and imperial blue.

The Sagaris im interested in is this one:-
www.pistonheads.com/sales/118624.htm

I personally love the colour, but just wondered what other people thought about orange, will it be hard to sell on, i know HHC have had it for sale for a while now.

I also spoke to the guy at Sports and Specialist cars in boroughbridge who sell 2nd hand TVRs and he was saying that he wouldnt take tvrs in either yellow or orange due to difficulty selling on.

All thoughts welcome

So would i if i could afford it , one of the NETVRCC members has got a Tuscan 2 conv,
actually he is the new R O , and his is the same colour and its stunning , never heard a negative whispered about it . Go for it i know i would .

The brighter the better IMO

It's a personal preference thing, I for one love the colour. I own an orange car myself, but not the same shade as the one your interested in. It's a TVR and there meant to be brash and stand out. If your worried about selling it on then don't worry about the colour, its the 20 grand knock back I'd be worried about when you do sell.

It looks fab and very striking, but I wouldn't buy it. I'm too conservative

Nobody buys a TVR Sagaris to fade into the background!
Go for it!

Out of my league I'm afraid, but I would if I could!

You know, its one of them colours, don,t look too exciting on the web or in print , but when you see it you've got to have it! Bought mine on this basis, and not a bad word about the colour. Go get it

Arancio Pearl looks Stunning on the Sagaris. the shape of the car itself is so outrageous it complements lairy colours like this perfectly!
go get it and enjoy it!

Bright TVR colours cannot be done justice by mere pictures - I know, I have just bought a pearlescent yellow cerbera - didnt look that nice in the pics but when i saw it I thought...hell yeah! gotta have it!!

As someone said you do not buy TVR's if you are the shy and retiring type!

[5MUG]

Buy it! It's fab, I love it.

[hiltonig]

What are you waiting for, it turns heads better than any Euro CE marked unit !

[Lord Grover]

I s'pose you could get a nice safe, subtle colour... like black if you're the shy, retiring type...

























PhotoShopped I'm told

Does look rude in the black!

[Ginner]

Just bought the yellow one from HHC, think the bright colours suit the Saggy.
