 TVR T350 | Sports Cars
In the case of the T350, acceleration, top speed and handling have been helped by its aerodynamically superb shape as well as its lower weight and centre of gravity.
Now in production for five years, the Speed Six is a tried and tested unit and has performed admirably in the hothouse environment of GT endurance racing including the Spa 24 hour race in 2002.
In all variants, TVR's own engine has been designed with responsiveness in mind which is the reason for it having individual throttle butterflies per cylinder and an ignition and fuelling map specifically written to make revs rise and fall instantaneously.

The driving force behind the Speed Twelve is TVR chairman Peter Wheeler who, as ever, has taken a hands-on approach by overseeing the initial idea, the design and engineering of both concept cars, and generally keeping the project running at the right pace.
The force behind the devastatingly presented Speed Twelve is a 7.7 Litre, V12 unit with the power and torque that makes rival supercar engines look puny.
Though the Speed Twelve may be a great publicity-generating machine, in the hands of the wrong driver it could make headlines of the lurid variety.

The TVR Tuscan Speed Six went into production early in 2000 and since then TVR have been making inroads into the initial order bank of 1600 deposits in order to bring the waiting list down to manageable proportions.
One of the inherent characteristics of a straight six is that it can be perfectly balanced and this particular one has a capacity of four litres and a power output of 360 bhp.
Like the Speed Twelve and racing variants of the Speed Eight engine, it has a dry sump which means it can sit very low in the chassis and that it doesn't suffer from oil surge which can be a problem with the long sump required for this configuration of engine.
