vehicle description:

TVR TASMIN 280i - Ford 2.8 V6 Cologne - as fitted to S1
This car comes with a file of history including a number of old MOTs. It is a well known car in TVR circles with a number of Youtube reports throughout its life. Known as Delilah in TVR Wedge circles, once owned by Mark Webb who ran it with a supercharger.
This car has a number of very desirable upgrades and modifications. A lot of money has been spent and is solid in all the right places. The engine runs smooth and very sweetly indeed.

Have recently spent around £1500 on her at Southways TVR Specialists Fareham, including new head gaskets and thermostat fitted, wheel bearing, exhaust modification etc. for the MOT.
All in all, this is a well together car that needs an enthusiast to take it to the next level and enjoy.
It has a few foibles in that it does not start that easily from cold, but is fine when warm. Have been told it is likely to be fuel pump relay as it can be heard buzzing and clicking while cranking. It also needs the Kenlowe fan switch tidied up as it runs from a manual dashboard switch and relies on switching on when in traffic. There is stat near the rad but the wiring is untidy around it so could do with a fettle.
The paintwork is a little tired, but certain a good machine mop would make it look a lot nicer.
The car owes me a fair amount and this is a particularly big spec version of this car.
I have a folder full of paperwork, receipts, old Mots etc etc. Previously plated as TVR 280X
Any inspection welcome.
Thanks for looking
Any questions please ask.
CAR IS BASED NEAR FAREHAM - OFF J9 - M27 - BETWEEN SOUTHAMPTON / PORTSMOUTH. CAN BE DELIVERED AT ADDITIONAL COST
