It’s hard not to immediately fall in love/lust with this 1979 TVR Taimar. After all, this rare British sports car is one of slickest designs around, and it looks even sleeker in the custom chameleon paint. So it’s amazing you can get this low-mileage, turnkey-ready road carver for under $30K The Taimar is quite rare – possibly as low as under 400 examples produced worldwide. So you already want a coupe like this one statistics alone, but we all know there is much more here. We all love the British sports machines because they can instantly be both sleek and sophisticated all in the first impression. The TVR’s split bumpers front & rear, long fender line created by the headlights, and low fastback/hatchback profile is exactly how we want a nimble lightweight sports machine to look. The overall lines on this look great thanks to well-fitting fiberglass, and this also means you don’t have to worry about body corrosion. Instead, you get to enjoy the extremely cool (and exceptionally expensive) Chromalusion paint that shifts between green, purple, and silver in different lights. Open the door, and see exactly what you were hoping for. A proper British sports car requires a proper leather interior. Averaging less than 850 miles annually means there was little time to wear down the seats. So the tan buckets look and feels supple. As you sit in the seat, the center console has the perfect height, and the gearshift has the perfect placement, so the car just feels like an extension of you. You’ll grab the three-spoke sports steering wheel, and arrayed in front is a dash full of Smiths gauges all working and ready to dance for you. And because a British sports car should always be an open air experience, all you need to do is reach up and fold back the canvas sunroof to be complete.
