Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1984 TVR Tasmin features a 2.9-liter engine, believed to be a Cosworth unit from a Ford Scorpio, replacing the original 2792cc engine. It comes with a well-documented history file, including seat recovering in 2008 and a new mohair hood in 2010, although the odometer reading of 1028 miles seems inconsistent with earlier MOT records.

Condition

6

The car has had some restoration work done, including seat recovering and hood replacement. It has a replacement engine and a comprehensive history file. However, the odometer reading is low compared to the documented mileage in old MOT certificates, suggesting it may have been reset or replaced at some point.

This stylish and distinctive TVR Tasmin started life as a 2792cc car, but now has a 2.9‑litre engine (believed to be from a Cosworth unit from a Ford Scorpio) installed.

It was registered in March 1984 and has an MoT until June 2023.

The odometer shows 1028 miles.

Reference to the history file (well‑organised in a bound black leather folder) shows the seats were recovered in 2008 and a black mohair hood and Targa section was installed in 2010.

There are a great many other general bills stretching back across the car's life, along with old tax discs and a selection of MoT certificates back to March 1987, when the mileage was recorded as 48,246 miles.

It looks as if the TVR crossed the 100,000‑mile barrier around 1991/1992 , although this was presumably quite a while before its new engine was installed.
