Specification

The first of the "Wedge" series produced between 1980 and 1987 and credited in period with redefining TVR’s image and moving the marque into a more modern era
Powered by the 2.8-litre Ford 'Cologne' V6 with Bosch fuel injection offering 155bhp, 0–60 mph in 8.4 seconds and 130 mph
Dating from 1983, this example is presented in distinctive Aztec Gold with a complementary brown interior and matching hood
It's accompanied by its original sales brochures, together with workshop and spare parts manuals
Impressively well-preserved and understood to be largely original throughout
Featured in a period road test comparison in Classic Cars magazine (October 1996) against contemporaries including the TR7 V8, Reliant Scimitar and Fiat Spider. Notably concluded as the "best of the bunch" in the aforementioned feature; copy of the magazine retained within the history file
Pleasingly retains the desirable private registration TAZ 9214, included as part of the sale
Recently formed part of a small collection and sparingly used, we therefore suggest that the TVR may benefit from a little light recommissioning prior to regular use
An increasingly collectible example, offered with history, character and presence
