The look, performance, sound and driving experience make the TVR T350 1 of the ultimate drivers cars. With no drivers aids, big engine and rear-wheel drive you need to be switched on but get it right and this Blackpool rocket will reward you with a very special driving experience. It might be 20 years old but looks like a modern supercar and really makes a statement.

On the road these cars are seriously quick, pestering highly modified Nismo GTRs in the corners and thanks to their light weight, on the straights too! The car has been de-catted for three good reasons:

It spits flames when you shift gears at pace
It sounds loads better
It removes heat soak in the cabin from the cats that sit just beside you otherwise
Perhaps not quite in that order, but the outcomes are all a great reason to run it as is (or you could put the cats back in for more sedate drives / warmth in the winter).

With its short overhangs, short wheelbase, lightweight and stiffened chassis the T350 was every bit the driver’s car. The 343bhp from TVR’s own thumping Speed Six engine propels the T with alacrity, cornering speeds are just as impressive – none of the fabled handling woes to be seen here, just a quintessential small numbers British sports car, but without the standard parts bin interior, engine or switch gear. These really are a bespoke, handmade British supercar that not only looks, sound and go brilliantly but are from my book, hugely undervalued considering their rarity and competence.

Clicking gears through the tough as nails T5 box, staring at the custom binnacle and using the factory-fitted pedal box with all alloy pedals, you know immediately that you’re in a special car, just wait until you’re on the open road!

Here’s a review from the period from a well-known chap, ...

“By some considerable margin, this is the best TVR I’ve ever driven. With its integral roll-cage it feels stiffer and more together, like all four corners are working in harmony, rather than in discord. And the brakes are just astonishing. So’s the power. You may only get 3.6 litres and no forced induction, but you end up with a better power-to-weight ratio than you get from a Lamborghini Murciélago. That means it is seriously, properly, eye-poppingly fast - Jeremy Clarkson
