TVR Vehicle Directory

Chassis Outrigger Rot: The tubular steel chassis is prone to severe corrosion, particularly the outriggers that support the body—terminal if neglected.

Speed Six Finger Follower Wear: Early AJP6 (Speed Six) engines suffered from premature wear of the valve gear, leading to catastrophic engine failure.

Electrical Failures: Door solenoids, dashboard displays (Tuscan/Cerbera), and erratic ECU behaviour are common.

Cooling System Weakness: Overheating in traffic is a frequent issue if the fans or radiator are not in peak condition.

Camshaft Wear (Rover V8): Neglected oil changes lead to cam and follower wear, sapping power and causing rough running.

Power Steering Rack Leaks: Prone to leaking from seals, requiring rebuild or replacement.
