Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1990 TVR S3 2.9C is a rolling restoration candidate with a powerful modified Ford engine and a recent stainless steel exhaust system. While mechanically sound and featuring a good Targa top and wheels, it requires light recommissioning including addressing cosmetic flaws like cracked indicator lenses and interior wear, particularly on the driver's seat.

Condition
6
The car is described as a 'rolling restoration' and 'perfectly usable' but requires 'light recommissioning'. While the bodywork is described as 'good' with no major cracking, there are specific cosmetic issues like missing bumper mouldings and cracked indicator lenses. The interior shows wear, with the driver's seat needing attention. Mechanically, the engine is strong, but the brake discs have corrosion and the fuel gauge is not working. The wheels are in good order, which is a positive. Overall, it aligns with a 'Good' condition rating, indicating moderate wear and the need for some reconditioning.
