    Brutal Sagaris Leads New TVR Assault



    No, it's not coming apart at the seams - the brand new TVR Sagaris really is meant to look like this. It takes its name from an ancient Greek war axe, which is ironic, because it looks like it's been attacked with one!

    The model is based on the sleek and smooth T350C, but the dramatic gaping holes aren't the result of a tooling fault at the factory. Instead, they are designed to enhance downforce and improve the car's high-speed stability. And that's important because, as a TVR spokesman explained, the Sagaris is designed to be a race-ready road machine. He said: "The reason the model looks like it does is that usually, sooner or later, most TVRs end up on the track. The only problem is that, in order to go racing, a lot of our owners have to modify the bodywork to make their cars more aerodynamic."

    He continued: "The Sagaris is ready to race - straight out of the box. What's more, the added downforce and grip offered by the changes to the bodywork also make it a better road car." Other modifications made to the T350C's lightweight composite body include a new front splitter and rear diffuser.
    A roof hump has been added so that there's room to wear a crash helmet in the cabin.

    But it's not only the changes to the bodywork which separate the Sagaris from its T350C stablemate. The chassis has been tweaked, sportier suspension has been fitted and the track is wider to improve high-speed cornering.

    Under the bonnet, the newcomer uses the 400bhp 4.0-litre straight-six from another TVR model, the Tuscan S. And that's not all the two cars share. The Sagaris also borrows the lightweight carbon fibre exhausts, although they have had to be mounted sideways due to the vehicle's very short rear end. Although official figures are not currently available, these additions should mean that the Sagaris offers similar performance to the Tuscan S. Therefore, expect a 0-60mph sprint time of 3.8 seconds and a top speed of around 200mph. However, all these modifications come at a cost. The Sagaris is priced at £49,995 - which is £11,500 more than the T350C. That said, as well as the performance-enhancing changes, buyers also get leather seats and carbon fibre interior trim as standard, plus a two-year warranty as opposed to the normal 12 months

    Per chi non si accontenta di 400HP

    500bhpTyphon Storms In


    Meanwhile, anyone who ordered a T440R thinking it was the most powerful TVR is in for a shock. Just as the car has gone into production, the Blackpool factory has created an even quicker version.

    Called the Typhon, the newcomer is the first TVR in 20 years to have a supercharger, boosting the output of its 4.0-litre straight-six engine to 500bhp. This power is fed to the rear wheels via a new six-speed sequential gearbox, and means the car can sprint from 0-60mph in 3.5 seconds and on to a 215mph top speed. TVR is already taking orders for the limited-run Typhon, which costs £79,995.

    A spokesman said: "Because it was designed to race at Le Mans, we knew the T440R's chassis could handle extra power, so we added it. We don't think customers will mind paying £5,000 more for the Typhon's extra 60bhp." Buyers who've already ordered the T440R and want what is now the ultimate TVR will be able to upgrade
