Fantastic opportunity to purchase my pre-cat early Griffith 4. 0 in outstanding condition with excellent provenance and a verifiable low mileage of 42, 356 miles. This example is the original factory 250 version of the famous and extremely solid Rover four litre V8 block with gas flowed cylinder head. A real petrol head's delight and this car will certainly bring a very large smile to your face every time you drive it.
HPI fully clear - no dark past!
Full 12 months MOT with no advisories.
Previous full engine rebuild including stealth cam kit by Dulford Automotive - fully documented and all parts totalling £4, 200!
Previous full respray in Lotus Carlton Imperial green - a really subtle but gorgeous colour in a lovely metallic dark green.
I have owned this stunning car for the last year and have spent well over £5k bringing it to both outstanding and reliable condition. During my ownership, the following work has been completed…
Full service with all standard consumables being replaced.
Full suspension overhaul with all shocks being replaced for GAZ Gold coilovers – the suspension has been set to standard road height but is now adjustable.
Replaced both seat belts and fitted extenders.
Items picked up in last year's MOT – all items being dealt with including – replace upper and lower UJ joints and gators, replace rear pads and disks, handbrake cable and wishbone bushes.
Respray front nose of car to remove the usual stone chips.
Full immobiliser and alarm replacement carried out by the renowned Carl Baker – META HPA EVO T1 alarm fitted with M23 microwave sensor and tilt sense – 2 x keys and fobs.
All fuel hoses replaced with ethanol proof hoses.
Speedo cable and speedo drive replaced.
Replace throttle cable and bonnet cable.
Replace rear hood screen and refit all rear carpets in boot.
Replaced fuel pump and spark plugs.
Prior to my ownership a significant amount of work has also being carried out which includes…
A full respray in Lotus Carlton Imperial green
New interior with Cerbera seats all in nappa leather – really stunning and improved look.
FULL Engine rebuild - everything fully documented.
Cam upgrade with ported and polished head.
Big spec brake upgrade with 285mm front brake upgrade and new rear callipers.
Leven alloy dash kit.
ACT smooth bore induction kit.
New clutch.
New hood and full carpet set.
So, as you can see this car has had a serious amount of money spent on it over the years. The usual gremlins have been dealt with and the car is good to go with no potential known TVR pitfalls ahead of you.
All work carried out has been fully documented with invoices to prove. The car benefits from a full years MOT and I also have the majority of MOT’s going back over the years to prove the cars mileage.
Overall this car is absolutely stunning and is a solid and reliable example of what is becoming an appreciating classic. The V8 sound is really fantastic and this is a real driver’s car with no power steering and ABS, just how it should be for this type of sports car.
I have just MOT'd the car and it went through with no advisories so you have peace of mind for the next year, the car is also HPI clear!
I am very happy for any inspection or test so please feel free to contact me to organise a viewing in the Brighton area. Also, any questions please fire away.
