TVR S1-S3 (1986 - 1994)
S2
A rare real sports car that is supprisingly affordable.
I have owned my TVR S2 since Oct 2002 and I have enjoyed every year of my ownership.
It is a very quick car with good roadholding/cornering abilities and is suprisingly comfortable on a long run although it is noisy.
As for reliability I have had a few problems over the years but my TVR has never failed to get me home under its own power. It is easy to maintain as parts are available as long as you know what
car they are for never mention TVR as it will not be listed. The glassfibre body is of course rust free but the steel chassi needs regular inspetion/attention to keep it solid.
The best way to drive is with the roof off listening to the wonderful noise.
To sum up if you want a rare exclusive (you don't often see any other TVR's) sports car I throughly recomend the TVR S series.
