I think that's what they were called. Or was it the T400? Are they still being raced around somewhere? In private hands?

TVR built 7, so off the top of my head.

LNT own four, (The two Synergy cars and the two Team LNT cars) John Hartstone's is on display in the Gaydon museum,
and I think the other two are still in their previous owners hands.(I can't recall who they are)

Funny you should ask the question as I'm intending to research a 'Where are they now?' feature on the T400Rs for Sprint.

There was one for sale at Str8Six not long ago, can't remember if it was a T400 or T440. I also think that it was up for sale at about £150k.

Dom bought one didn't he? I'm interested to see what he's going to do with that but as far as I know he's gone quiet about it since announcing the purchase!

Sorry but I don't know, it was on their website a while back but it's gone from there now.

I assume the OP meant racecars if so then the 'gf' is probably the owner of the T440 roadcar for sale in Str8six

I don't think Dom bought it in the end and it isn't a real race car it's a promotional car based I believe on the red prototype roadcar.

There was a girl in Aberdeen who had one, I think her partner at the time also had a orange Sagaris.

The yellow DeWalt car which raced at Le Mans in 2003 was for sale at SpeedMaster Cars in Bradford a while ago IIRC

Offer to show her yours if she'll show you hers.

As mentioned above, they owned a Typhon and the T440 between them. The Typhon was sold and then the T440 was repaired and was the car for sale at Str8six.
