I was tempted... but I really couldn't quite stretch to 41k. Safe to say it's well out of budget now! Also spotted you circa 10 miles outside Blackpool on Monday AM in your Tuscan, should you have spotted a T350T on the opposite carriageway.

Looks lovely but not to my tastes. Possibly a bit of a marmite combo in a market when the bubble could burst any time and leave then with maybe a £35k car. Don't see the issue... did you think it was worth that for a private sale?

33% Margin is good business if it's all profit.

I must agree I preferred it before the re-trim.

I Always regret selling a TVR, but I Always get another thumbup

That was a lovely car, and my intention was to have the interior and hood retrimmed with saddle leather and tan hood, in the manner of 60's Ferrari. I had an early Tuscan SP6 as well, at the time,decided to keep that one and sell the convertible - to fund the purchase of one of its competition brethren as it happens , maybe should have kept the 'vert and saved a few quid hehe.

You'll never be left with a 35k car unless you put starship mileage on it; at 55k it may hit its ceiling some time soon but I can't see them begin to depreciate again.
