Thought this could be useful. I had a dodgy lambda sensor which was effecting the fuel mixture and after looking on the various TVR parts websites found a new one was about £140. Did a bit of digging around and found the equivalent Land Rover sensor (Part No. ERR6729) on eBay for £65.

Fitted it last night and works a treat....so saves a few quid!

Handy to know! 3-wire or 4-wire?

Three wire. I get to spend the other 80 quid on petrol!

you might find that the std LR version expires, or at least oozes black gunkie stuff out of the top. The proper SP6 versions are modified LR items where they're stripped and the low temp wire isolator inside is replaced with a special ceramic isolator to withstand the high temps of the SP6 exhaust. If you're looking for a short term fix you've saved some money thumbup if you're looking for something more permanent you maybe find the adage buy cheap buy twice holds true ..

Good to know! frown

Might be a silly question, but what kind of head to the SP6 sensors have? My cerb had two different ones, one with a rounded head and the other with a flat head, maybe someone's beat me to it and fitted an equivalent already..
