DESCRIPTION

A fully restored 1990 example of the TVR 280 S2.

The TVR S Series was announced at the 1986 British International Motor Show.

The S2 model uses Ford's Cologne V6 in 2.9L in 170bhp form.

This particular car has had only 4 owners and comes with a very large TVR car club history file.

The current owner has spent the last year fully restoring the car to a very high standard from chassis to paint (spending over £10,000 in the process). Recently finished, it has had a full re-spray in stunning burnt orange with a translucent finish, a full new interior and a replacement soft-top (done by DC Trimmers of Blackpool - the original TVR trimmers who are still in the TVR building!). It also has fully restored alloy wheels with new tyres.

The engine has been fully serviced and rolling road tested at a very healthy 184.1 bhp.

Surely, it must be very hard to find to similar example in such exacting condition.

More photos to follow prior to auction.
