Lot Ended
Description
Smart example; recent respray; polybushed front end; new discs and
pads; sound underneath; driven 30+ miles to the sale
The vendor of
this 280S has owned it three times over the years, so it must be good!!! He
presumably accounts for at least two of its six previous registered
keepers.
Sold new by the Sports Car Centre in Drakes Broughton, the
service book shows eight stamps to 36,680 miles in 1996 plus its original
PDI....There is a thick file of invoices on file from this period.
The
MOT history lists its mileage in both 2008 and 2014 as 87,384 so it
was presumably off the road for that seven-year period, the odometer currently
showing 87,707 miles so it has been only lightly used over the last 10
years.
Experian listed the car as a Cat C following an accident in 1999,
just prior to the car coming into the hands of the current owner for the first
time. He sorted out the damage which was limited to the bonnet and hinge
mechanism - all of which was repaired/replaced properly at the time.
Just
recently the car has been treated to a full front suspension rebuild with new
polybushes and a substantial brake overhaul. It has certainly been fit and
healthy since arrival on site and was driven some 30 miles to the
sale.
It presents well, with a clear rear screen and even retaints its
targa top covers for storage when in the boot.
Well shod and ready to
enjoy, it is MOTd until 28th February 2025 with no advisories
showing.
Fun to drive and with an exciting sound track, this TVR looks
great value and is ready to enjoy.
