DESCRIPTION

Sparkling, well maintained and upgraded Griffith 500...

This exciting 1993, TVR Griffith 500 has now covered a little less than 69,000 miles and was supplied new by Fernhurst TVR. It's accompanied by its original service book with 15 stamps, a folder of receipts, 18 old MOT certificates, and maintenance invoices totalling over £17,000.

The outriggers, a known issue with the Griffith, were replaced in 2008, a professional 'Canems' programmable engine management system has been fitted, it has upgraded grooved brakes, adjustable suspension, and also Steve Heath drop links. Presented to auction with an MOT valid until July 2017 and sensibly guided, this represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a model that continues to gain momentum in the collectors market.
