Being honest; I think the TR8 is a far more intertesing and rarer car to alot of so-called British "classics" that fetch a huge premium. Not many genunine TR8s were made when compared to the TR7. 9.35: 1 compression is standard CR for 80's rover V8s. And a v8 in something that weighs less than a modern Fiesta with RWD has to be an interesting drive.

Anyhoo, aint worth £40K unless its a genuine TR8 FHC (which I doubt; as most are roadsters); more likely a TR7 with a v8 plonked in, which makes it worth £15K tops (if it really is concours).

Always had a soft spot for these but none are worth that much.

Its bad because it bears no resembalance to a works car ,most of the spec is wrong,and the car has no history.

If it is a genune TR8 it is a shame they've bolloxed it up with all that rally stuff. If it is a modified TR7, ok if driving a tarted up rally lookalike floats yer boat (whoops, keep forgetting what site I'm on) but it would be far nicer if it looked like a regular TR7.

......shhh.... the tartan trim is my favourite bit .
