The Blackpool Based TVR Motor Company First Offered The Sagaris To The Motoring Press At The 2003 MPH03 Auto Show And Then Was Further Showcased A Year Later In 2004 At The NEC Birmingham Motor Show, With Order Books Fully Opened And The First Small Numbered Vehicles To Become Available To The Lucky Few In 2005. Even Tho The Factory Never Documented The Exact Total Built Of Cars, There Are Reports That Only A Mere 211 Units Had Been Produced And Sold Between 2005 To 2006 And If We Fast Forward To 2018, The Total Number Of Vehicles Still Available To Acquire Are Very Few And Far Between, Thus Making This The Ultimate British Modern Day Classic Super Car. The Radical Design Came From The Perfect Collaboration Of Factory Designers Graham Browne & Lee Hodgetts, Who Both Wanted This All New Offering To Be Endurance Racer, Yet Sadly The Sagaris Was To Be One Of The Last Models That Would Be Produced From The Lancashire Sea Side Assembly Line And With The Aggressive Sculptured Body Curves And A Multitude Of Air Vents, This Fabulous TVR Was To Set The Heart Beats Racing For Those Purist Of Petrol Heads, That Wanted Their Own Piece Of British Hand Built Excitement. Every Element Of The Car Was To Create Maximum Aggression And Fear To Other Leading Car Manufactures, With The Vehicles Name Sagaris To Come From The Greek Lightweight Battle Axe Used By The Formidable Warriors Known As The Scythians, Which Was Feared For Its Ability To Penetrate The Armour Of Their Enemies. At The Time Of Build The TVR Brand Was Under Russian Ownership, With The Young Oligarch Nikolai Smolensky, Wanting To Make His Mark On An Already Established Performance Manufacture, So He Wanted To Improve The Final Finish And Build Quality, That Had Been A Down Fall From Many Past TVR Cars Dating Back To When The Company Was First Founded In 1946. TVR Chief Engineer Daniel Boardman Was Also Frustrated With Historical Factory Build Issues And Was Tasked With The Job To Over See The Wishes Of His New Boss, So He Looked To Improve Problems With Water Ingress, Poor Fitment Of Interiors And The Sometimes Scary Vehicle Handling, Which Had Made Drivers Slightly Nervous To Even Consider A TVR As An Option To Purchase. So Mr Boardman Improved The suspension Which Eliminated Bump Steer, The Dampers Were Tuned With Input From The Bilstein And Multimatic Concerns, The Bonnet Was Redesigned To Work As Well As Any Conventional Steel Bonnet And The Door Seals Were Meticulously Checked To Ensure No Water Ingress. The Immense Power Came From The Four Litre Speed Six Engine Which Produced An Impressive 406 BHP Between 7000-7500rpm And 349lb ft Of Torque At 5000rpm, Which Would Accelerate Both Driver And Passenger From 0-62 MPH In Just 3.7 Seconds, Would Brake From 60-0 MPH In An Astonishing 2.9 Seconds And Then Would Further Climb To A Top Speed Of 185 MPH, With The Final Party Piece Being Offered From The Thunderous Noise, Generated From The Chromed Sided Exhaust Pipes.
Chassis Number B001204 Was First Supplied By TMS TVR In Melton Mowbray In July 2005 And Since This Date Has Just Has The One Private Registered Keeper From New, Which In The World Of The TVR Brand Is Viewed As Being Remarkably Rare To Now Find. This Of Course Is Highly Exciting, But Then If We Consider That Over The Last Fourteen Years Our Sagaris Has Only Had A Mere 13703 Miles Applied, Then Suddenly We Do Have Something Very Special To Presented To The Next Lucky Custodian, As This Roughly Means That This Vehicle Has Only Had Approximately 978 Miles Per Annum Applied Since The New Start Date.
