TODAYS FEATURED DEALER

1996 TVR GRIFFITH 500

This stunning  5.0 litre TVR Griffith has covered 59000 miles from new and comes with a full-service history. Finished in Pathfinder Blue with a stunning contrasting Grey and Turquoise leather hide upholstery .
Although the Griffith model was almost mechanically identical to the Chimaera, it had a different body design and was produced in much smaller numbers. This particular example is also the much more desirable 5 litre version and is incredibly quick offering outstanding performance.
She was supplied new by Christopher Neil Ltd and comes with its original handbook with service history containing fourteen stamps. The cars first service was carried out by TVR Engineering Ltd in Blackpool at 1300 miles and the following four services at 2495, 7643, 11392 and 17277 were carried out by a Chichester based sports and classics dealership. TVR, Fenhurst Motor Co in Haslemere then serviced the car at 21957, 28780 and 31982 before another TVR specialist serviced the car at 37497 miles in 2003. In 2004 V8 developments supplied a high torque clutch and maintenance in 2006 and 2007 included a new drive belt and exhaust mountings. A Sheffield based specialist service garage serviced the car and stamped the book at 53725, 54805 and 55402 and most recently the supplying dealer, now Oakmere Lotus serviced the TVR at 58983 and 59658 miles in 2017.
On the road she is ferociously quick with a top class V8 engine that is fantastic fun. The five-speed gearbox is fabulous to use and there is little on the market as exciting to drive at this money
Supplied fully inspected,serviced with 12 months warranty.

TVR SAGARIS 4.0 STRAIGHT SIX SPEED 



The Blackpool Based TVR Motor Company First Offered The Sagaris To The Motoring Press At The 2003 MPH03 Auto Show And Then Was Further Showcased A Year Later In 2004 At The NEC Birmingham Motor Show, With Order Books Fully Opened And The First Small Numbered Vehicles To Become Available To The Lucky Few In 2005. Even Tho The Factory Never Documented The Exact Total Built Of Cars, There Are Reports That Only A Mere 211 Units Had Been Produced And Sold Between 2005 To 2006 And If We Fast Forward To 2018, The Total Number Of Vehicles Still Available To Acquire Are Very Few And Far Between, Thus Making This The Ultimate British Modern Day Classic Super Car. The Radical Design Came From The Perfect Collaboration Of Factory Designers Graham Browne & Lee Hodgetts, Who Both Wanted This All New Offering To Be Endurance Racer, Yet Sadly The Sagaris Was To Be One Of The Last Models That Would Be Produced From The Lancashire Sea Side Assembly Line And With The Aggressive Sculptured Body Curves And A Multitude Of Air Vents, This Fabulous TVR Was To Set The Heart Beats Racing For Those Purist Of Petrol Heads, That Wanted Their Own Piece Of British Hand Built Excitement. Every Element Of The Car Was To Create Maximum Aggression And Fear To Other Leading Car Manufactures, With The Vehicles Name Sagaris To Come From The Greek Lightweight Battle Axe Used By The Formidable Warriors Known As The Scythians, Which Was Feared For Its Ability To Penetrate The Armour Of Their Enemies. At The Time Of Build The TVR Brand Was Under Russian Ownership, With The Young Oligarch Nikolai Smolensky, Wanting To Make His Mark On An Already Established Performance Manufacture, So He Wanted To Improve The Final Finish And Build Quality, That Had Been A Down Fall From Many Past TVR Cars Dating Back To When The Company Was First Founded In 1946. TVR Chief Engineer Daniel Boardman Was Also Frustrated With Historical Factory Build Issues And Was Tasked With The Job To Over See The Wishes Of His New Boss, So He Looked To Improve Problems With Water Ingress, Poor Fitment Of Interiors And The Sometimes Scary Vehicle Handling, Which Had Made Drivers Slightly Nervous To Even Consider A TVR As An Option To Purchase. So Mr Boardman Improved The suspension Which Eliminated Bump Steer, The Dampers Were Tuned With Input From The Bilstein And Multimatic Concerns, The Bonnet Was Redesigned To Work As Well As Any Conventional Steel Bonnet And The Door Seals Were Meticulously Checked To Ensure No Water Ingress. The Immense Power Came From The Four Litre Speed Six Engine Which Produced An Impressive 406 BHP Between 7000-7500rpm And 349lb ft Of Torque At 5000rpm, Which Would Accelerate Both Driver And Passenger From 0-62 MPH In Just 3.7 Seconds, Would Brake From 60-0 MPH In An Astonishing 2.9 Seconds And Then Would Further Climb To A Top Speed Of 185 MPH, With The Final Party Piece Being Offered From The Thunderous Noise, Generated From The Chromed Sided Exhaust Pipes. 


Chassis Number B001204 Was First Supplied By TMS TVR In Melton Mowbray In July 2005 And Since This Date Has Just Has The One Private Registered Keeper From New, Which In The World Of The TVR Brand Is Viewed As Being Remarkably Rare To Now Find. This Of Course Is Highly Exciting, But Then If We Consider That Over The Last Fourteen Years Our Sagaris Has Only Had A Mere 13703 Miles Applied, Then Suddenly We Do Have Something Very Special To Presented To The Next Lucky Custodian, As This Roughly Means That This Vehicle Has Only Had Approximately 978 Miles Per Annum Applied Since The New Start Date. Regardless Of This Incredible Current Reading This Sagaris Has Been Maintained To The Highest Of Standards With Past Historical Service Visits Logged At 1277, 5951, 8086, 8875, 10492, 11780, 12146, 13177 & 13480 Miles, With The Extensive History File Documented With Various Invoices, Past MOT Sheets And Other Important Details That Trace The Cars Life Perfectly. Once Sold We Will Be Delighted To Offer This Unrepeatable Find, With The Entire Booklet Pack Set, The Original Bill Of Sale From TMS, Rare Images Of The Car During The Factory Build, A Fully Cleared Hpi Certificate And A Fully Functional Key Set, All In Place For The Next Person To Keep And Cherish During Their Own Ownership. The Past Provenance Of This Stunning TVR Sagaris Is Firmly In Place And We Firmly Believe That This Has To Be One Of The Rarest Examples, With An Excellent Array Of Important Factory Options, Staggeringly Low Mileage And And Extensive Historical History File, So With This We Expect A High Level Of Interest From Every Corner Of The Globe, With Options To Ship Worldwide, Available Upon Request...

The Ultimate Modern Day Classic TVR Sagaris....
