[limeyusa]

Hi all, I'm in search of a Tasmin 280 Series 2 either hardtop or softtop. Must be in good condition and looked after. If any one knows of one please let me know. Vehicle location not a problem. Will pay the right price for the right vehicle. Thanks Gavin

Does it have to be a 280? I've changed my mind and want a Griff 4.3 BV, but I have a 390SE in my possession.

I paid $13,200 Cdn (5,250 GBP) for it, plus $8,200 for shipping (incl taxes, duty, import fees etc). Add those 2 costs together, and add $100 for the long distance phone calls it took me to put the deal together and it's yours. Break even price.

This is the car.... http://control-alt-delete.ca/tvr/


P.S. The car is in Alberta Canada

thanks for the offer on the 390, but i think i'll pass - RHD and the fact the i could not legally title the vehicle in the US. however it is an extremely nice looking car. good luck.

Watch ebay... there is usually one listed every month or so. Some better than others.

And join the TVRNA Club, usually nice ones list in the magazine. Grady

Hi Limey,

I was in the US in February and drove down to Key West.
On the way down I saw a 280i Soft top on Ranrod Key.
Its for sale and the guy selling is "Al"
His address is
26924 Overseas Hwy MM27
Ramrod Key FL 33042
Phone [phone]

Good luck

I have got a 280i hard top which I have driven all over Europe, great fun.
Just sold my Chimaera to cover the cost of the engine repairs on the Tuscan I bought in October 06.

Thanks all - I've purchased a 280i BRG/Tan from VA, in the process of having it shipped home - Rapid City, South Dakota. I'm pretty sure I will have the only TVR in the area.
