It's a fabulous engine. Pistons as used in the Aprilia RSV1000, valvetrain from a GSXR750. Budget meant it got a cast crank instead of the planned forged steel one but Racing Green will sort you a billet item. Get the valvetrain sorted, too.

A lot of power in a lightweight car with no crumple zones and next to useless air-bags. What could possibly go wrong..? Not sure these have all the traction control gubbins that make most of us think we are the race drivers mentioned above? Cool car though, and a hoot to drive no doubt!

Olaf 3317 Report post Posted September 26, 2019 (edited) The wisdom in UK was all TVRs should be registered on 'Q' plates, as each is in fact a pre-production prototype. What was that sh*t movie with John Travolta (yes I know, there are many to choose from amidst the Pulp Fiction!), where he drives one of these? Oh, damn it was a Tuscan speed six. You know, it's a wonder they sold so many large american SUVs if that chase is anything to go by... they all explode on impact! Thankfully Mr Hugh Jackman's range has improved since this series of grimaces at the wheel. In closing... $165k? Tell him he's dreaming. Not their finest hour: TVR Sagaris. Celebrating the greatest cock-ups in automotive history. Today we look at TVR Sagaris Edited September 26, 2019 by Olaf links Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
