Of it's '05 spec ( big upgrade in 05)you should be good - there's s t350 about with 147,000 miles on it. Dom rebuilt it at 100,000 partially out of curiosity and I believe he found nothing fundamentally wrong.
You maybe thinking of mine though you might have some of the numbers in the wrong order. More like 174,000. TVR Power rebuilt at 60k. The 'out of curiosity' rebuild was 100k miles after that. Now well on it's way to 200,000, probably by the end of the year.

That is amazing. Apart from the engine have you had anything else re-built / changed? It's not a case of Triggers sweeping brush is it

Not exactly Triggers broom, but with this many miles one's definition of consumables changes. Not just tyres, pads and oil filters. I've replaced 4 clutches, 2 (or 3) sets of discs, 4 wheels, one set of Nitrons, 2 radiators, 2 windscreens, 2 wiper motors and numerous engine mounts. And a reconditioned diff. And a gearbox.

Great to hear about your millage as I have just forked out on a TVR Power rebuild of my 4.0L Cerbera, I did some research before I went there and heard a lot of good things from people who have had a rebuild by them and the millage they have achieved trouble free.

Considering the mileage thats still good going, I think I've had 4 clutches at 74000.Noisy said:
