SOLD - 2004 TVR Tuscan Mk 1 4.0 S Targa – “THE REFLEXTREME MK 1!” - SOLD

SOLD ON 14 AUG 18 As advertised in May last year …….. and no need to change the words other than to update them!!

“If Carlsberg made TVRs……” this would be their Maximum Strength Mk 1Tuscan!

TVRs are appreciating and the Tuscan Mk 1 is one of the most desirable models available. And this particular example ticks every box !

Let’s list the PLUS POINTS :

Full house 4.0 Litre S car (very rare), Low mileage (was 17,614 now only 19,232), Low number of owners (now 4), Great External Colour (Reflex Charcoal), Great Interior Colours (Ocean Green and Ivory), Perfect 18” Silver Spider alloys with Brand New Tyres before last sale , Fully stamped Service Records……

In addition to this, Str8six have removed the 2004-built engine lasy year, checked it over and installed new ½ time bearings, uprated sprockets and new roller bearings. The car’s lustrous bodywork has been addressed by Surface and Design. The Interior has received Trim Unique’s attention and incorporates new Andrew Muirhead and UK Hide leather, and the doors now feature Str8six’s characteristic straked leather centres.

Technically the car benefits from uprated, adjustable shock absorbers, Michelin Pilot Sport tyres all round, and - with a full Optiline suspension aignment before handover - the fabled nervousness of the Tuscan Mk 1 chassis was eliminated.

The car is a cosmetic tour de force coming as it does in one of TVR’s most sought after colour combinations, embellished with near brand new, encapsulated badges, and riding on Classic unmarked Spiders. The car does of course have air conditioning and it features TVR’s top specification Pioneer ICE system.

Turning now to the negatives…..there are none of which we are aware !! (Other than that this car is likel y to be available only for a very short time !!).

So, why did Owner No 4 sell this stunning Tuscan ? Simply because he bought a Superb Sagaris from Str8six at the end of 2017 as well !

This Tuscan will be supplied with Str8six's renowned "All the 12’s” handover specification. This will include a full 12K service (incl. valve clearances and 4 wheel alignment), 12 Mths MOT, 12 Mths Tax, 12 Mths full Wear and Tear warranty (parts and labour), and a 12 volt trickle charger.

This is a very desirable example of a TVR Tuscan Mk 1 4.0S – rarely found in this condition and with such low mileage.

It represents something of an investment opportunity - given its specification , condition and desirability. It is worth considering that a Tuscan Mk 3 4.0S Targa with commensurate mileage and in these colours would command a price of £55,000 (now £65,000), while a Sagaris would cost at least £70.000 (now £80,000)!!

This Tuscan could be financed (usual terms and conditions) and possibly over a period of up to 10 years.

Please call to arrange viewing and please bring your driving licence, if you wish to drive the car .
