Description
Smart 2. 9 V6 Series 2 TVR with a great exhaust note, tidy roof and very good history file with bills dating back to 1989
Dating from June 1989 this rather smart looking TVR S-series S2 is fitted with the later 168Bhp 2933cc litre Ford Cologne V6 engine. Power goes to the rear wheels via five-speed manual transmission with only your right foot acting as a ‘driver aid’ with no abs or traction control to keep this lively and sonorous beast in a straight line.
As with many TVR’s the S2 can be enjoyed roof up, as a Targa top with the twin removable sections neatly stowed or as a full convertible. Offering surprising practicality, there is space behind the seats and a usefully proportioned boot for a cheeky weekend away.
Inside, we find black leather/ vinyl with white piping and leather covered dash with array of well-placed switchgear with minimal signs of age bar some splitting to the base of the passenger seat that any good upholsterer should be able to make good again.
The car shows just 77, 600 miles and presents well, having been with our enthusiast owner since purchase in February 2016 during which time the car has covered just over 1, 000 miles.
The history file includes the V5C, Owner’s pack and service booklet recording seven stamps. In addition, the file contains 25 old MOTs along with the current, valid until April 2026 recording no advisories.
We also note inclusion of the DVLA supplied ownership history, two old V5C’s, purchase receipt dated November 1989 when the car had covered just 3, 616 miles from The Chequered Flag dealership, TVR club mags, an original TVR S-Series sales brochure and S2 price-list (May 1989) and stack of bills.
The bills on file date back many years but recent works of note include a replacement clutch slave cylinder in November 2023 at 77, 525 miles, a throttle position sensor in 2015, alloy wheel refurbishment in 2014, service and wax oil in 2012, new alternator in 2011 plus a host of other bills for parts and maintenance dating back to 1989.
A most appealing example of the TVR S-series with the well regarded 2. 9 V6 engine in what looks to be lovely order with a very good history file and appealing exhaust note.
