SUMMARY
A rare opportunity to own the ultimate TVR... á
DESCRIPTION
Low production numbers, high quality and collectable TVR in excellent condition Just 26,278 verifiable miles, fully documented with complete service record Recently inspected by known marque specialist giving a clean bill of health Designed with racing in mind, a car with striking looks and blistering performance First seen at the 2004 Birmingham motor show in 'pre-production' form and by the following year in 2005 the new Sagaris model was available to purchase at TVR dealerships. Production would continue for just one year making this a very exclusive car to own, indeed. TVR's Chief Engineer, Daniel Boardman, had a design brief with endurance racing in mind, while also focusing on quality, addressing some of the 'niggles' TVR had become known for. The result was dramatic, both in appearance and performance, and build quality didn't appear to be an issue either. The unique asymmetrical (single bubble roof), a multitude of air vents, and Perspex 'gurney flap' give this TVR a commanding road presence. Sagaris is the Greek name of a light-weight battle axe and this model would live up to its name, packing some punch with a 4.0-Litre straight-6 producing 406bhp propelling the car from 0-60mph in 3.7 seconds. With less than 200 examples produced, this exciting GT today offers the opportunity to own a modern classic, with striking looks, fantastic handling and exciting performance. On offer from of a collection of equally rare and interesting sports cars, this outstanding example had been factory ordered in stunning metallic Grey with Grey / Burgundy leather interior. The service record is full, documented and complete, having been looked after by TVR and known marque specialists. When the vendor purchased this car in 2017 he rightfully had it fully inspected by a very well respected TVR expert with all details logged in the file. A full service, inspection and MoT have just been carried out giving comfort to the potential new owner. On test, this example performed without fault. The driving position is just right, a turn of the key and the 400 bhp straight-6 booms into life, the throttle is responsive and has just the right resistance, and for a car that looks so dramatic, it's no drama at all to drive sensibly, I am told that when you begin to push the handling inspires confidence as do the brakes. Here is a car that you could drive to Spa, lap the circuit in a decent time with confidence, and drive back home. This is a well-known Sagaris in TVR circles having been previously owned by prominent members of the TVR Club UK. These cars rarely come to market and are becoming highly collectable, an enjoyable car to own that could end up being quite a shrewd investment.
