The Sagaris was the final new model to leave TVR’s Bristol Avenue works before production stopped, and arguably the purest expression of what the Blackpool firm stood for. Built around the 4.0-litre Speed Six, with a tubular chassis, glassfibre body and no electronic aids, it was conceived as a road car that could go racing with minimal change. The bonnet vents, sculpted rear and side exhausts weren’t styling for its own sake, and the car remains one of the most distinctive shapes of its era.
This example, build number 1110, was ordered on 29 August 2006 through Parkgate Garages of Belfast for the Republic of Ireland market. It entered build the following day, and its specification sheet was amended in October 2006 ahead of delivery at the end of January 2007. Its first owner clearly wanted something special. Finished in Cascade Purple, the car has grey full-hide leather with purple stitching, and purple leather picks out the dash, vents, seat surrounds, gaiter, door tops and carpet piping, so the interior and exterior complement each other well. It was built to 2007 specification with side-facing exhausts and a kilometre speedometer for its intended market.
As a 2007-specification car, this Sagaris benefits from the final round of factory revisions. Rear-facing exhausts replaced the original side exits to reduce motorway boom and meet international noise regulations, and the update also brought a one-piece bonnet, a third brake light and new alloy wheels. Remarkably, it still wears its original TVR-stamped Toyo tyres, a detail that confirms how little the car has been used.
The car was first registered in the UK in January 2022 and has since been looked after by respected TVR specialists TVR101 of Surrey. Their recommissioning work in November 2022 included:
Further attention followed in July 2023, when the throttle and connections were reset and the fuel sender adjusted. In November 2024 the car had an oil and filter change using Castrol Edge 10W-60, along with an inspection. All invoices are on file, together with the original TVR specification sheet and a duplicate VCA British National Type Approval certificate confirming the chassis number.
Sagaris examples rarely change hands, and most have been used as TVR intended. Finding one with 158 miles, a colour combination as distinctive as this and documented history from the original build sheet onwards is very rare indeed. This is a car for the TVR collector, or anyone who wants the last great Blackpool car in as close to as-delivered condition as exists today.
