Funnily enough the twin turbo cossie V6 out of our old tasmin race car was one potential transplant into the new T350 racer we built this year.

The ultimate TVR would not be a TVR without a TVR engine frown

Whats the point of a sagaris, or for that matter any other TVR on an american engine. Why call that a TVR at all. Its simply a fiberglass bodyshell with a TVR logo on it. Hell I could stick a TVR logo on my BMW and call it a TVR!

Whatever the ultimate TVR is, it would have to have a TVR engine.
