The Speed 12 has a Carbon fibre body, all the ones currently in production use Fibreglass.

Doesn't the Typhoon/Tuscan R use/will use a Carbon Fibre body?

And Ultrabeat, there is a TVR dealer in Sheffield called Hillfoot near a Burger King.

...about a mile away from my house, although i've not been past it in a while, and don't know if it is still trading - with Sheff Wednesday in free-fall through the footie leagues 👍 their highest paid players can probably only just afford second-hand Kias
 
The Tuscan R was a concept that never made it into production, instead we got the T400R and the T440R, the Typhon I think does have a carbon fibre body shell, but that won't be launched until the end of the year.
 
Hmm. Seems the Tuscan has had a makeover. There's only 2 lights now instead of three.

details of the new Tuscan 2 Targa below.....

Still does 60 in 3.8 seconds though. :D
 
They had the Sagaris and Tuscan 2 on Fith gear on Monday, anyone tyhat missed can see it later tonight channel 5 at 7:30.

OMFG!!!! :drool:

That video wasn't there the last time I looked!
I think I just had a heart attack. :D

The video was marvellous. :drool:

Edit: The video was taken when evo magazine was testing it out. In the evo article is says the car was limited to 5750rpm, so was it in the video?
 
OMFG i love that car 👍

The sound of that car is awsome :drool: :drool: , and yes it was limited to 5750rpm when that video was taken, if it was the same day that evo drove it.
 
Yep, say day same setup, different driver. That was the cars actual owner driving in the video.

Also a little heads up, that guy's currently in talks with a couple of TV programmes about the Speed 12 appearing on them, he's only going to show it on one and I think TopGear's the current fave to get the priviledge.

Jammy Bas****!! :(

I had that car, I'd put about 5 alarms, 10 immobilisers, and 3 trackers in it.

I'd also fit it with double glazed bullet proof windows to stop the scum from breaking in in the first place.

Absolutely. I couldn't get to the video, but the newest Speed 12 road car looks so good (first time I've seen it)! Wow, this thing is mean looking, terrifyingly fast, and beautiful! Again, wow!
 
I can'timagine the guy's face when he saw it advertised in the Autotrader lol.

Without a freaking doubt. Wow. I finally got to that video, and I am in awe. Wow.
 
Theres a racing version of the T350 and racing Sagaris in the works, also the Typhon will be even more extreme than the Sagaris. Theres a vid of the Sagaris when Clarkson teste it on TopGear, the best TVR yet apparently, and it showed.

If you can find it, I'd be very grateful. :D
 
Which one,the T350 racer, Typhon or Sagaris racer? Theres no pics of the Sagaris yet, I'm pretty sure there should be pics of the T350 online and news on the Typhon is pretty easy to come by.
 
The Typhon, please. Is it (supposedly) faster than the speed 12?

Whichever ones you can get. 👍

I wouldn't have thought so. The Speed 12 has nearly 400BHP more.
 
There hasn't been any new news for ages on the official Speed 12 site. :(

Can I join your precious club?
I'm a TVR nut! Gimme a Sagaris any day!

No it's not as quick as the speed 12, nothing on the road is, exept the Dauer 962.
