As a kit car with a LS V8.  Who here wants to die in style?

I remember playing The Getaway on PS2 when I was a kid. Almost like a British GTA style game. The TVR was always my favorite car to drive and it was a handful. This is a pretty cool opportunity for 10 people.

Putting a weak engine in a TVR is a tacit admission that you are afraid to die, wear socks with your sandals, and still wet the bed.

Oh. Oh my.  This is amazing and I need it.

Kinda unclear to me, is this outfit essentially reproducing new Sagaris's's like Factory Five with the Cobra kits, or did they stumble upon a stash of unbuilt cars from a decade ago?  Their site says "only 10 for 2019", so hopefully if they're the former, they'll keep building them into the future.  Because I want one.

Kind of funny that a LS powered Sagaris reminds me of another British coupe that came and went like a flash in the pan in the middle 00's, the Marcos TSO GT.  It debuted when the LS2 that powered it was hot off the assembly lines in '05 and was around for maybe a year or two.  There's a few road tests out there comparing the two cars; it & the Sagaris were always way up high on my favorite British cars list.

Buddy of mine in England inherited a TVR. It hasn't killed him yet, so surely this is a safe bet.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

i feel like LS Swapping a TVR is one of the only things you can do to make it LESS likely to murder you

Is this when I get to post this? Am I doing this right?

Do these things drive well? I LOVED this car in Gran Turismo. ABS vis a vis MK60 standalone kits, a nice LS7 (because if you are buying a TVR, you can't measly put an LS3 in it); and probably be a fun as hell runabout.
