The TVR White Elephant....
Recently purchased by Shmoo Automotive Ltd, the famous prototype was made for Peter Wheeler back in 1988.
In 2004, after many years of chasing after it, the car was bought directly from Peter Wheeler (..the week before he sold the company) and rescued and restored by Howard Bryan.
Howard and I have known each other for a fair few years and since 2022 we've been dancing around the idea of him parting with the car. Well, two years later, and after 20 years of ownership, which saw him and a whole team of Ex-TVR employees restore the car, he's let Nelly go.
Fitted with a pre-production prototype SS Group A SV engine and the first TVR to be fitted with a T5 box.
In the 37 years since it was built, the car has never been on the open market.
OFFERS OVER £100k WILL BE CONSIDERED. Please put forward your best offer on the car. Export is not an issue, I have excellent Export/Shipping contacts.
