Mine never did, after the post build testing phase anyway which was about 2-3k mls.Also TVRs don’t breakdown...

Yes but yours benefits from heterogeneity... Scientifically demonstrated to improve resistance. Clearly the anglo roman interbreeding works well...Mine never did, after the post build testing phase anyway which was about 2-3k mls.

Price... Reliability... And all other matters aside... This is a lovely looking car. Never having owned a TVR, were i to do so, it'd have to be the Cerbera well before the Griff or Chimaera. Whilst I'm slightly perturbed by issues of reliability and maintenance, the biggest hurdle i face is that the easiest pathway to import a TVR into Australia requires the car to be 25 years old. Yours is presumably a MY99 or 00...so 3 to 4 years off still.
Its a 67 plate 4 seater mateJust noticed Stradale for sale via email from Sytner, not seen on their site. Bianco fuji with black interior, 2 seater less than 10k miles and 2 year warranty. Asking £68,000 which sounds a lot until I realised it is on 13k more than above black/black/black car. Is the choice of "not black + 2 year warranty + low miles" worth 13k? To someone it will be and might even be sold.
Personally I can afford to run a maserati only, buying is for another day
The Jag green is the original factory colour of my car. I think if you ordered new TVR would match any colour you wanted.Price... Reliability... And all other matters aside...

Regardless... It looks great, and i hope you get what you want for it.
Is the Jag green a factory colour? Or as the name implies... An overspray?
I think I’m leaning towards 2 seater, I just hope one is still available when I’m ready to buy.2 or 4 seater (for OP). Very biased opinion here, but the 2 seater always sounds and feels crazy. The 4 seater always seems to me to be what happened at the factory when someone high up in Ferrari caught on to what they were doing in the Maserati sheds 'round the back.
If you don't need 4 seats, definitely go 2.
Neither of mine did over combined 5 +years of ownership, couple of quirks niggles that was all.Also TVRs don’t breakdown...

It must be a myth, most people who have owned one say they are reliable.Neither of mine did over combined 5 +years of ownership, couple of quirks niggles that was all.

My Tuscan was reflex spice. a four colour flip!Yep any colour. My Tuscan was a BMW colour.
I think people who spend that sort of money on a TVR want a TVR and nothing else will do.
As an owner I kind of agree with the Blackpool kit car statement, I’ve enjoyed owning my Cerbera but I wouldn’t recommend one unless you really desperately want one.
how about the price of this?

I agree with this. I had x2 Cerbera’s and the second one a 4.5, at the time set the benchmark in the early BHP debates (a lot of work done just to get a 4.5 to it’s TVR stated 420bhp) so regularly hit the dyno and drag strip to prove a point or three. However, it was my pride and joy so was also pampered and mechanically very well looked after.It must be a myth, most people who have owned one say they are reliable.
Mine has never broken down in the 12 years I’ve had it, occasionally it drains the battery if I forget to put the charger on.
Amore?A quick Google and I found a TVR place just a couple of miles from me... they also do car storage, which is much less that the one I use near Bibury.
