Hello forum.
Whilst devouring Christmas lunch yesterday I had an epiphany (which may have been alcohol induced). As a TVR owner for the past 25+ years ive been getting itchy feet but couldnt decide what to trade up to. Then deep into the second bottle of wine i remembered, as a 13 year old, the car i promised myself ‘one day’. A Merak SS.
So, my current TVR will be going up for sale in the New Year, then the search can begin. Im here for advice and suggestions. I ‘think’ im after a late RHD car but thats only because "later car must be better" but i have no real knowledge on the subject. Where are the best places to search? Theres a few on C&C but where else should i be looking? Not adverse to buying from a respected indie, but similarly from an enthusiast. Id like the car inspected by a recommended agent/engineer, so suggestions for that person welcomed. From the bery small numbers currently available there seems to be quite a difference in prices.
Any other forums to search? I was an original Pistonheader (even pre date that with Petrol Ted) but rarely go there these days. Im in a few Facebook groups for my other cars but Maserati seems to have a very small footprint there.
