Laser Blue, with Nitrons and SP12 wheels. I sold this car late 2015 and the new owner had a mishap and it subsequently showed up at TVR GLEN (I think) as salvage with front end damage.

I was wondering if it got bought and brought back to life?

Is there any point? It's clearly been scrapped. The tax expired in November 2017 and the MOT expired in April 2018. That all points to scrapped years ago.

Try motorcheck.co.uk. among other similar services, who for a very small fee will confirm whether it has been scrapped and the date.

The car is registered as a Cat S last keeper change was on the 01/04/2018, 8 owners in total. Sounds like it’s either a long term project, was taken out of the country or it’s been broken up for parts. My guess is that it’s sat in a garage/workshop as a stalled restoration that will probably surface at some point in the future.

Then why isn't it SORN'd? It's been scrapped as a search will confirm, as I suggested.

Not every car that is off road is sorned especially if it’s registered within the trade. Also not every vehicle that was taken to Europe is registered as exported. So anything is possible. There is certainly no “scrapped” marker on it either so who knows what happened to it or where it is today.
