Here we have a 1986 TVR 420 SEAC, No. 3 of 38 produced. A rare car.
The
car was originally a show car for TVR and was registered by TVR
themselves. Started life Silver in colour but the first owner wanted a
Black one so TVR painted this one for him.
The first 10 cars are beleived to be the better built cars with the kevlar bodies
The car had a new speedo fitted at 18,000 miles so the current mileage of 22,000 is displayed.
The
car has some service hitory and receipts from it's early days, when the
car was used by Fugitive films Knotting Hill Gate & Filmstar
studios
There is a pile of mot cert's that show how the mileage adds up.
The car has been garaged all of it's life and owned by my brother for 12 years. Only ever light use at weekends.
Tube Torque of Macclesfeild made a custom Stainless Steel exhaust which really has to be heard to be beleived!
The
overall condition of the car is good however would suit a small
amount of effort and money to bring the car back up to the standard
it deserves. Some of the laquer on the bonnet has lifted off in an
area smaller than a beer mat, also there is a chip to the petrol filler
cap. The bottom of the skirt below the front bumper has touched the odd
curb and has some chips to the corners, the photo's show this.
The
interior could do with a small amount of work mainly a good clean. The
woodwork of the dash fascia has warped and discoloured, the laquer on
the door handle woodwork has become brittle and broken. The leather
seats and other leather trim is all original and remarkably sound.
The hood is in excellent condition, as is the space saver alloy spare wheel. All 4 tyres are like new!
There is an expensive Cobra alarm fitted that works however the key fob has done a disapearing act.
Regrettable
sale, due to family commitments, need something that can accomodate a
child seat. Nudge nudge wink wink, something like the size of an XK8!
Selling on behalf of my brother so you can call him direct on 07976 766054 Rob.
