They drive fast. They are elegant, British and very sexy.
They are Sheryl Coles, Kelly Brooks, Liz Hurley and Sienna Millers of Sports Car Design.
They are TVR…….the pinnacle of great British sports car engineering.
Forget the other comparisons to what’s great in Britain, like fish chips and roast beef, cream tea and a pint in a British pub: we’re talking about desire; We’re talking strong. We talk very sexy…..but we don’t talk dirty.
We talk great. We’re talking EXCLUSIVELY we’re talking decent and we’re talking about a date you want to keep with your next dream car.
TVR brand has become a legend in recent years. Since production ceased in 2007, the brand has been linked to many piston head rumors and the former TVR management team; Russian billionaires Two American entrepreneurs want to start production in Orlando from 5,000 units per year and former managing director of TVR David Oxley.
All I can say is “keep watching”.
TVR is in the hearts and minds of thousands of enthusiasts and owners, and the demise of its manufacture is only temporary.
Aspiring owners can secure these exciting beasts online and from reputable TVR distributors in the UK.
Parts, service and after-sales support are guaranteed through the supply line of genuine dealerships, and the cars and brand remain a favorite dream of motorists.
When it comes to talking about individual models, I’m in my element, and can wax lyrical about their specs and defining characteristics.
The word that best sums up TVR’s famous Chimaera is……. effortless. Propelled by the legendary TVR, the development of the Rover V8, 4.5-litre [285bhp] The motor can take this beauty from 0 to 60 mph in 4.7 seconds and propel you from 0 to 100 mph in 11.2 seconds. With a top speed of 160 mph, you may not be in the fastest car on the road, but you’ll know you’re driving a fun car. The large-bore stainless steel exhaust system delivers a great V8 sound and is optimized for maximum performance.
Aesthetically, the Chimaera is a nice build that’s enhanced by 15 inches in the front and 16 inches in the rear. One look at the cockpit shifts… seduction on the horizon. 350mm leather-wrapped column-mounted adjustable steering wheel: everything about the dashboard design tells you, ‘I’m British and proud of the fact’.
The Tamara from TVR is a fully convertible, 2-seater, 3.6L straight, 6 rear wheel drive sports utility vehicle for fun-loving motorists. It accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 4.4 seconds, and can reach 100 mph in 9.5 seconds and has a top speed of 175 mph. TVR’s Tamora has the power and speed to entertain and exhilarate sports car enthusiasts.
Specs include ambient air temperature, alarm, immobilizer, remote window shut-off, radio/CD with removable face, usual bag of goodies like stainless steel exhaust, 16″ alloy [or Anthracite or Silver] High-end wheels and finishes throughout.
The 2-door, 4-seater TVR coupe – with integrated roll cage – gives an extra dimension for the passionate and patriotic British sports car enthusiast in interior space, as well as luxurious power and comfort. Cerbera is certainly a first-rate action to follow, if you’re trying to play catch-up on the open road. that it
4.2 liters [360bhp] The V8 will take you from 0 to 60 mph in 4.2 seconds. You can quickly reach 100 mph from a standing start in just 9.9 seconds and continue up to a top speed of 180 mph.
Not forgetting the larger 4.5-liter Cerbera sister, it can give you a real adrenaline rush by reaching a top speed of 195mph. Both have lavish interiors with all the faults associated with advanced TVR engineering, along with ice detectors, power windows, remote window closing, alarm and engine immobilizer.
These kids are real imitators and from behind might be mistaken for a Jaguar coupe, but not by a TVR connoisseur.
How can I not get excited at the mention of the Tuscan TVR?
In one word………. sedition.
TVR offered a two-seat, straight-6, alloy engine with rear wheel drive. The larger Tuscan S offers a 3995 cc engine that will deliver a top speed of 195 mph. The Tuscan displays 18-inch alloys and looks like a beast for a child to handle, but it drives like a dream. From the moment you feast your eyes along the front of her plunging hood and towards her seductive eyes,[gas discharge headlights on full beam]Your heart will start racing in unison with its 390 horsepower engine.
Everything about the Tuscan S says minimalist design meets exquisite British engineering: Inside the cabin, the machined aluminum finish makes up for the cockpit interior and the innovative steering wheel design is like a deep British axiom…….. it’s gorgeous. He’s talking to you, saying…
How could anyone resist her vibrant charm and strength?
No TVR’s prestigious range of classic sports cars and coupes would be complete without the T350, a two-seat, 3.6-liter straight-6, with rear-wheel drive. Its adorable little looks are deceiving, and it shouldn’t fool motorists as it packs incredibly responsive performance. Any sporting animal that hits 60 mph from a standing start in 4.4 seconds is a T350 tiger waiting to be tamed. With its sexy racing seats and interior, the T350 has something extravagant about its demeanor.
The 18-inch alloys give it striking stature and a dagger that no testosterone petrol head can ignore.
Pull up at the bus stop in this spacious mall and the amazingly attractive girl who drives in front of you every day will have you drooling and won’t be able to resist your cute offer………
“Care for an elevator to town on my TVR?” You ask.
There is a short pause – which to you seems like an eternity – and then you respond…
‘I would have preferred the Tuscan S which is first class work and sums up the TVR’s pulsating performance values’.
You confidently answer: “You are the representative of the class in this conversation, cool.”
“In that case, I know you are a gentleman and the T350 will not undermine my status in front of all my co-workers.”
You lean in, open the door, and insert the girl of your dreams. You’re in heaven and the T350 purrs like a babe by your side as you smoothly accelerate away.
Only if….? Only if….?
If only a dream could come true, like buying a classic TVR?

Internet-savvy motorists will have no problem finding a used classic online.

Girls may prefer the Griffith 500 with its more compact and good looks. Don’t be fooled by a false sense of security because – once again – TVR has hidden a 5-liter, 90-degree V8 monster under the hood. It will propel you from 0 to 60 mph in 4.1 seconds and reach 100 mph [from a standing start] within 10.5 seconds. Offering a top speed of 167 mph, you know your natural feminine charm may be outweighed by a sudden impulse to become virile and aggressive………and forget the lady in you, in your zeal to impress the lavish!
There’s a touch of sophistication about the Griffith 500’s walnut instrument panel, leather steering wheel, mohair soft top, stainless steel exhaust, tinted glass, and alloy accents. It vibes positively – even when parked – by deflecting envious glances from jealous motorists.
Let temptation take over your leadership aspirations.
Don’t take the practical route by evaluating all the reasons why TVR isn’t your bag. Do you want to be another boring kid or be a “soft guy”?
Avoid driving to your nearest Ford or Vauxhall franchise dealer and have your average family car checked out.
