About this car

This 1973 TVR 3000M started as a conventional M-Series and was reworked by Bornemann Vehicle Engineering in Germany as the first car the firm built. The original tubular spaceframe chassis and glassfibre body are retained, but a Cosworth 2.0-litre turbocharged engine now sits under a modified bonnet, making about 360 PS at 1.4 bar of boost. With a stated weight of 1,020 kg, that gives a power-to-weight ratio of under 3 kg per PS.

The chassis has been developed to suit. It has adjustable double-wishbone suspension at both ends, 320 mm cross-drilled Brembo discs with four-piston calipers, ABS and traction control, a roll cage and a Cosworth five-speed gearbox with a limited-slip differential. Three-piece 16-inch Image wheels were made to measure in the UK. The car is finished in silver with a black leather interior.

The page says the engine, gearbox and rear axle have covered only 20,000 km. The car is TUV-approved, and a service and new 12-month TUV are included in the sale. It is in Germany and will not be coming to the UK. Shmoo Automotive is selling it on behalf of the owner.
