    Who cares!

    Re: OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL - TVR Sagaris Model Year 2008:

    Yeh, not a lot of sportcar interest beyond German and Italian cars on this forum I am afraid.

    Yes you get the occasional Corvette or Nissan GTR spark of interest when it comes to challenging the German/Italian big-boys, but not much beyond that.

    Tough crowd for your first post

    Re: OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL - TVR Sagaris Model Year 2008:

    I care - I think those are interesting cars!

    how come this is your 1st post since you joined 4yrs ago

    Re: OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL - TVR Sagaris Model Year 2008:

    TVR stands for 'Trevor' (Trevor Wilkinson being the TVR founder) btw.

    Just thought you might like to know that, no special reason!

    Re: OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL - TVR Sagaris Model Year 2008:

    Always been a fan of the 350.
    The Sagaris is just too over the top for no appearent reason.

    Maybe not, but definitely interesting enough to read about it and be grateful for the post

    Re: OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL - TVR Sagaris Model Year 2008:

    Too bad they are not available in the states. I would have probably bought a Tuscan Speed6 back in 2003 instead of the equivalent costing Boxster S.

    Re: OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL - TVR Sagaris Model Year 2

    TVR used to be so wicked - so unique.

    i wish they came to the states...

    Re: OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL - TVR Sagaris Model Year 2

    Trevor Wilkinson passed away not so long ago at the age of 85.

    Re: OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL - TVR Sagaris Model Year 2

    The ownwer now is a russian guy called Nikolay Smolensky who bought the company at the age of 24 in 2004.

    His father a Russian oligarch gave him Pounds15million as pocket money for his first foray in the world of business.

    I am not sure what is worse a russian owning very British TVR or an Indian owning Jaguar and Land Rover.

    Re: OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL - TVR Sagaris Model Year 2

    How about Volvo owned by a communists

    their new model ..



    the mighty Volvo QQ


    BTW I kinda liked TVR Chimaera

    +1.

    Came very close to ordering the Tuscan S in 2003/4.

    Dealership gave he one for a day and it is still the most angry car I've ever driven.

    Problem was that after a day's moderate usage, the engine developed heating problems, the rear boot stopped closing shut, the front bonnet latch became detached on one side and my ears wanted to bleed from the constant and amazing aural assault.

    i like TVR, they are just so wild and dangerous. the old sagaris didnt have anti-lock brakes or airbags. Its just thrilling to be in the edge of death everytime you get in a car, even when doing 30.

    "edge of death"? Without anti lock or airbags? Somehow I don't think every driver in every car up through the early to mid 90's thought of their sunday drives as being on the "edge of death". Airbags are a safety feature, antilock brakes exist to help take the bad out of bad driver.
