Presentation
Combining the elegant lines of TVR's M series with the practicality of a hatchback, the TVR Taimar was one of the British marque's most iconic models of the late 1970s. This rare version with the 3.0-litre engine is one of only 395 ever produced, making it particularly sought-after by enthusiasts of hand-crafted sports cars.
This 1979 example has benefited from significant restoration work, including the rebuilding of the chassis in 2012 and a complete overhaul of the fibreglass body by a specialist in Gironde. The car is accompanied by a comprehensive history file, including photographic documentation provided by the British owner during the restoration, and has undergone a number of recent mechanical interventions to ensure it remains in good working order.image.png4.26 MB

✓ The seller is registered as a private seller, which means that consumer rights arising from European consumer protection legislation do not apply. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic's terms and conditions.
✓ We ask that a non-refundable fee is paid if you are the lucky winner of the auction or if your bid is accepted. Please refer to our FAQs and terms and conditions for specific fees.
✓ This vehicle is "sold as is", on an "as is, where is" basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are for illustrative purposes only and it is customary to carry out a full vehicle inspection prior to purchase for your own peace of mind.
✓ VAT is included in the buyer's deposit. VAT may or may not be included in the final offer or tender price, as specified in the advert.
✓ We want the transaction to go as smoothly as you do, which is why UK-registered cars and motorbikes offered for sale on Car & Classic are HPI checked to ensure they have no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and are not financially pledged, allowing you to bid with confidence.
✓ We also check whether vehicles are registered as written off as part of a total loss at the time the advert is placed on Car & Classic and provide write-off category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) to help you. However, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the status of the vehicle and it is always worth carrying out a full vehicle history check before making an offer on it.
✓ Buyers are responsible for the collection or delivery of the vehicle. Importing vehicles may incur additional customs duties and import taxes. If you wish, we can recommend a third party transport company who can assist you. For more details and to speak to the team, email [email protected].
