They did a fair bit of work on the car subsequently I suspect, as they now drive very well, particularly with some Bilsteins added to the mix. It’s also possible now to add the Sagaris steering upgrade which, I am told, pretty much removes any tramlining. As always, thanks for uploading this Trevor content. Hope the Griff is treating you well.

Thanks Martin, I think that is petty much it for the old press footage I had squirrelled away.
Thanks for the insight on the T350, I had no idea you could go that retro fit.

All these years later, does any experts know which years were the engines better, or capable of big mileage without a rebuild?

[@MatthewPoxon]

The later engines seem to be most reliable but I do not believe there is any sure way to determine as there are many early TVR Speed Six’s out there on original engines still going strong.

Interesting that this a 52 plate and a prototype. Mine is on a 52 plate too. It seems to be a bit different from all the other t350 I've seen.

That is odd, according to DVLA there was only one T350C registered in 2002 and 175 registered in 2003. The records are notoriously sketchy for TVR however.
