Description

The 1985 TVR 350i is a prime example of British engineering and flair, combining unique styling with exhilarating performance. TVR is known for producing lightweight, powerful sports cars with a raw, engaging driving experience, and the 350i is no exception. Equipped with a robust 3. 5-liter Rover V8 engine, this model delivers thrilling power and a distinctive exhaust note that appeals to enthusiasts. The car’s fiberglass body ensures a lighter, rust-resistant build, enhancing performance and longevity. With its iconic wedge design, agile handling, and TVR's heritage of producing exclusive, hand-built sports cars, the 350i offers a rare blend of character and capability that sets it apart in the world of classic roadsters.

The MOT on this vehicle expired a little over a year ago and it has since been sat unused underneath a cover, it is now being sold as a good basis for a winter project.

The bodywork presents well from a distance but does have micro-blisters, lacquer defects and a few cracks (some of this can be seen in the close up photographs), in my opinion it is quite useable as it is. The interior has unfortunately got damp / wet but has cleaned up OK. There was no mention of corrosion on the MOT which expired a little over a year ago - the only advisories were for one tire and water ingress into a rear light. With this being said, we do not have access to ramps so please come to inspect the vehicle yourself.

Transportation:
We can provide you with a price for next-day transport from a third-party transportation company (circa £1. 80 per mile one-way from CM21 with a minimum fee of £160).

Good points:
- 3500cc V8 (which we have started and appeared to sound well)
- 5-Speed manual gearbox
- Power steering
- Will qualify for "Historic Vehicle" registration next year which currently benefit from MOT, Tax and ULEZ exemption
- Lattice / BBS style wheels
- Nice colour scheme of a red exterior with black interior
- Quite a considerable history file which has got damp / wet but still largely legible
- HPI Clear
- Have had it starting, moving and stopping

Known faults:
- Sat unused under a cover for the past year or so
- Micro-blisters, lacquer defects and cracks to the body
- Large fuel leak
- Boot release button doesn't work
- Oil pressure gauge doesn't appear to work.
