TVR is a boss. World safety and health regulations agencies say put on air bags, add TCS, btich bitch bitch, growl, sanctions, etc and TVR is like "what? oh... sorry, didn't get the memo" or "we'd like to keep our identity fuck you very much".
Im 28 and had have owned 3 TVRs I currently drive a speedsix in australia and make all the turbo heads piss in their shopping carts, u don't pull chics in a skyline or a wrx suck shit if you have one. Also fuck every american car and their drivers TVR=STYLE your cars look like redneck methlabs... kind of like you!
I like this video for two maim reasons one I love England it looks wonderful out the window I wish I lived there. Most importantly that car has one of the most amazing sounds. I have a Austin healey 3000 the straight 6 engines are amazing.
This is a TVR Tuscan - not sure why people are even mentioning the 'old' Rover V8 (created from the Buick lump) this model has a V8 designed and built 'in house' by TVR, it uses a 'Flat plane crank' hence that characteristic noise its making. I believe the last TVR to use the Rover V8 was the Chimaera.
P.s Whats with the "tit for tat" school girl style bickering that always goes on in these comments!? The US AND UK both make some awesome cars..period.
@DD77ism . ALMOST right. The Tuscan uses the 'Speed 6' 6 cylinder made in-house by TVR, as used in all the later cars. You're probably thinking of the TVR-produced AJP V8, which was used in the later 1980s and 90s Tuscan racers(totally different car), and in the earlier Cerberas. Google is your friend ....as ever. :)
@DD77ism its not V8 its a straight six, I haven't had 3 or 4, just the one and its a straight six in-house built normally aspirated engine, they sound like this regardless especially on poor quality cam-corders...I agree UK and US both develop great cars...
This is a straight six. If it were a V8 with a Flat Plane crank, it would sound more like a Ferrari, or it would mill on like a 4 cylinder motorcycle.
@donkeyspamffs - actually, the average Brit has pretty decent teeth and is actually better looking than the average French, Spanish or Italian, let alone the Americans...
@donkeyspamffs if you think english are ugly, may i suggest you come here , ive travelled the world and english girls are a match for any nations women
It's a sweet sounding six, must be a V. It reminds me of my Capri with the 2.6 German design engine, man it sounded sweet with it's dual pipes, much like this car sounds.
@505197 - nope, it's an inline six, much better. Oh, and the Capri 2.8 (not 2.6) Cologne V6 was an unreliable POS. Crap engine. V6s, as a rule, to which there are inevitable exceptions, are inferior to straight sixes. V6s have to have hefty balance weights and balancer shafts which add inertia and spoil throttle response to make them smooth: straight sixes are inherently balanced so don't need any of that rubbish.
@EccentricRichard The Capri was introduced in the US with a 2.6 engine, not a pos 2.8 head cracker. The 2.6 had two exhaust ports per side instead of three, and neither had balance shafts. And the bank seperation was 60 degrees. The engine was produced in Germany and was not a piece of shit. The four banger avaliable was 2.0, later it was the pos I don't like it 2.3 that is so popular to hop up, ie Esslinger racing. Straight sixes are smooth, and they are LONG.
Seen as we are throwing irrelevant facts about here is one for you - The FASTEST lap around the Nürburgring is by a Radical SR8 LM which is produced in Peterborough, United Kingdom.
... and by the way swearing isn't a very nice thing to do!
@scrotillathehun so you wipe your asses (donkey's) with countries like ours do you, it would appear you wipe your fat overgrown arse's where ever you go, leaving behind devastation, turmoil, with as you say, very little care at all, seems you have inherited the gutter language to a tee however.... You are exactly the reason most of us don't like you, a stereotypical ignoramus with little education, stop it cause majority of Americans are ok; Dos i chwarae efo dy nain.....yr name says it all
There is alot of hate on here, most of us Americans disagree with our governments foreign policy. Please don't hate us all based on a few. Anyway I think the biggest thing that people need to remember is money. This TVR is freaking amazing but also cost a shit ton more than a "unrefined" corvette. Refinement takes cash.
Shame TVR sold out to the Russians and got closed down. Tuscan racing was my favorite series, especially when Peter Wheeler used to race. Now this is just another former British car company. TVR used to make most of their cars for export... to the south of England. But in the end they were still corporate sellouts.
Well I'd rather have an Aston Martin than a Corvette any day of the week. Aston Martins have style and class in abundance, something a Corvette or any other American car (with the exception of the original Ford GT40) will never possess..........
It sounds like okay at best, I wouldn't say its much better than any other car.
And secondly how the hell did all the bantering come about? California fat inbreds and crack whores? I can tell you've never been to Cali or US for that matter, but you sure have a big mouth like most Brits on here. How was that big wedding for you all?
@cosworthsaresexy - no, the mass majority of the British think we should keep the royal family, as politically it's much more stable than a Presidency, and we'd also lose billions of pounds of tourist income if we became a republic.
@scrotillathehun its not a V8...its a straight 6, we don't buy V8's because they're too expensive to run as fuel costs over here are ridiculous, perhaps we should take a leaf out of your book and start invading oil producing countries, pretend we're their mates build McDonalds, Starbucks, and other fat engorged outlets and see how long it takes the locals to start waddling like you lot, fat outta shape, loud, obnoxious, country invading twats....
@kpnutswales Your fuel is so expensive because you have a socialist prison state, where you have no right to protect yourself, and the elites keep importing 3rd-Worlders to displace the native Anglo-Saxons. Don't forget the VAT, as well. There is no "value added" when govt takes another slice of the pie you worked for as a private individual!
And no, this "Yank" is NOT happy with how his govt has been on a warpath for the past 20+ years! Nor am I fat, out of shape, and I don't eat fast food!
I don't get the arguing, TVR is the closest thing the UK makes that jives with our culture. Safety takes a backdoor for stupidly fast engineering. TVR's are basically Dodge Vipers in spirit...
Neither country is a shithole. How spoiled are you to think that of the two greatest countries in the world? You guy are actually fighting over how cheap the gas is or who has higher octane? What the fuck? Seriously?
Try living in fuckin' africa, china, or mexico and see what a shithole is really like.
@36psi Haha, how ironic you commenting on TVRs when the American Motor Industry has one of the worst build qualities on the planet. Ever wondered why your cars don't sell well over seas? It's because they're a pile of wank and no-one other than patriotic yanks are dumb enough to buy them! The V8 was invented in France by the way, Europe.
@36psi "the latest fucking Corvette", I think I know which one you mean, "latest" meaning it's cutting edge, new technology, but isn't that the one with leaf springs?
@36psi The reason you don't have TVR's is because they are too dangerous for American market, it is a fact that cars for the American market have a softer setup than those for the European market. It even happened back in the 50/60's with all the BSA's, Triumph's, Norton's etc, the US spec bikes always had higher rise handle bars for a more comfortable ride, who the fuck wants comfort on a machine designed for performace?
Why the hell does everybody bash on America? I do realize that the majority of US youtubers are ignorant, but theres an equal amount of ignorant UK people on here too. In my book, you guys are just as arrogant and elitist as you claim Americans are. Just calm down. Just because there is a select group of Americans that are morons, doesn't give anybody the right to throw out blanket statements and stereotypes. You dont see me going on rants about how bad your teeth are. Not everyone is fat here.
@Joshuadrooney British people like you give your country a bad name. Im guaranteed free healthcare until I'm 26. Whats your healthcare like? Oh thats right, its through the roof. What about your gas (petrol) prices for that TVR? BBC reported equivalent to $7.00 a gallon. In this "shit hole" I'm only paying $3.75 a gallon. I would never want to live in your racist, socialist, and racist country. Im pretty damn comfortable here in America.
@burninrock24 You're paying for lower quality petrol, it watered down quite a bit. As a result, cars designed for use in Europe and the UK make less power in 'murrican than they do in Europe.
@PoliticalAdverts Actually our gas is not "watered down". Octane is simply a rate of how long it takes before it ignites due to compression. Not how much/little filler or "water" in your opinion. Plus its not like your gas is expensive because its such a high octane. I can buy 104 octane gas for $5.12 right now at my local performance station. Plus we offer Ethanol Gas. A car that has been tuned for running on ethanol will produce more power than almost all octanes of gasoline.
@mayzon111222 We are NOT racist. We just have a very low tolerance to sloth and gluttony. As long as youre a hard working individual that doesnt live off of government supplements, then youre good in our book. If not, then youre despised since our hard earned tax money goes to the people that are abusing the government. It just happens that certain races tend to be lazier and government supported. And that gets mis-translated as racism. But look at all of you attacking me because im American.
Therefore you must modify them which by relation brings their reliability to 0. Well done contradicting yourself you fat ignorant moron. I live in Australia which means there are no tvrs for me either (for now at least) unlike you (sorry bastard) we drive on the right side of the road which means I can (and will) import one at the end of this year thank you very much Britain – a great car by a great company. Lest we forget.
haha I would feel guilty if I didn’t chime in here: @36psi you are clearly a fat ignorant fool like the rest of the people on the western seaboard of America. I have difficulty knowing where to start in explaining how stupid some of the things you have said are. You race ricers skylines etc. I assume you don’t race them stock since a stock supra takes anywhere between 5 and 10 minutes to get to 60 depending on how badly thrashed it has been by the 18 year old skinhead who you bought it from.
@36psi you might find the French were the first to sell a V8 engine, De Dion Bouton motor company if memory serves, i think the V8 just became absorbed in american culture and media :)
@36psi Wow... ive seen some stupid people on youtube.. but you're the kind of person that gives your country a bad name..... Anyway, the car sounds like its being run on bottled thunder. Theres nothing quite as exciting or in your face as a true TVR. One day im gettin me one.
Hehehe, yanks, you do make me laugh. The V8 that TVR use is the result of getting some fat useless buick POS and re-engineering it, much like we rebuilt the apache into a capable gunship.
also, California is full of mongy fat inbreds and/or crack whores. enjoy!
@Cerberuselite Wow....a little harsh on the Californian stereotypes aren't ya? By that logic I could say all English people are insincere, poorly groomed and have disgusting teeth. I've been to your island a few times, so I know that isn't the case...soooo...yeah...
@Cerberuselite I agree even tho I am an American but I'm not the average uneducated no culture redneck retard. I'm more the educated asshole American. TVRs are one of my favorite cars. The look so good sound so good and damn are they fast.
@db10001110101 you have my respect. I have many american friends who have brains, & they are a joy to be with. It's such a shame that wide spread indoctrination of a bizarre kind affects so many americans & gives them the reputation that they have, BUT, we Brits are not that much better. I'm a Brit living on the continent (the part where I can do 160mph everyday legally) no power cuts, great food weather & intelligent sexy women. I can't stand the UK either since we now copy the US all the time.
Rather ungrateful aren't you? Considering all of your favourite engines (including this one) and UK's favorite music, fashions, cinema and technologies mostly or exclusively come from the United States. We've all heard about you folks in the North, so I think you'd best find some respect and pay mind to the glass house in which you live.
@clivereid Dear Clive, I never said the Speed Six had a V8. I was responding to the bigoted comments made by another Briton. Had you been paying attention to the conversation you'd have known that but from the looks of your profile you were probably too busy gaming and watching videos of burnouts to actually pay attention before opening your cheeky, half-educated mouth. Good luck, mate.
@zapwatt After re-reading the posted comments, yours still reads as if you are commenting on the vehicle featured in this video (your use of the words "this one" when referring to an engine). If you meant the Buick / Rover V8 that TVR used in the '90s, you are correct: It was originally an American design. However, the Speed Six as featured in the Tuscan in this video is a British engine. I have nothing against the U.S. at all and find the Internet "tough guy" arguments posted here pathetic.
@Cerberuselite - the Buick 215 was a very advanced engine when launched in 1961: all-alloy construction. Having been abandoned by them (and Oldsmobile, I think), it was bought by Rover, relaunched in 1967 and remained in production in Land Rovers until 2004, and remains in small-scale production to this day. It went into just about everything, TVRs, Triumph TR8s, Morgans, Westfields, Bowlers etc... it's a very strong, reliable and tunable engine, one of the all-time greats. Some fat useless POS!
@Cerberuselite - also, TVR eventually dropped the Rover V8 and introduced that weird AJP8 thing, flat plane crank and narrow 60-degree bank spacing. Apparently it was 2/3 of an intended V12 (as seen in the Speed 12), but the V12 never got off the ground and the AJP8 was destined to remain an oddity. Sounds weird.
@Cerberuselite You Brits make me laugh, Thinking you made the Buick V8 better when all you did was buy the tooling and produce it with nearly no changes. and anytime you fools tried to make a V8 of your own (Triumph stag) you failed.
@mopar43v3r So taking an engine that started with about 150bhp and turning into an engine producing about 350bhp isn't making it better? As for failing to make V8s, Aston Martin, Daimler, Jaguar, Lotus and Rolls Royce say you're wrong. And if we can't make V8s then how come half the cars currently running in F1 and ALL the cars currently running in Indycar are powered by British V8s?
@t45tube So you think you're the only country that modifies engines to make more power? And what about the many many British cars that use american V8's because theres no better alternative? And where do you get your info about Indycar? They use Honda engines, which last time I checked, Wasnt British.
@mopar43v3r Where did I say Britain is the only country that modifies engines to make more power? And yes, a lot of British cars have used American V8s because they provide a lot of power for relatively little money. I've driven British cars with small block or LS Chevy V8s and small block or modular Ford V8s, and they've all gone very well so I'm not knocking American V8s. As for Indycar, Honda gave the job of designing & building its Indycar engines to Ilmor Engineering in the UK.
Look, you don't have to be a ponce about these things. So what if you used one of our leftover engines we got tired of tinkering with for your TVRs and Rovers? Big deal. Insulting the sunny and gorgeous state of California isn't going to make your point have any more importance than it currently deserves.
@Cerberuselite Although, you might have a point about current Buick V8s... what in the hell are you talking about as far as rebuilding the Apache? You realize that most of your special operations boys use our equipment? There's no need for competition between allies, but pick and choose your battles. Your tea is better. Your Counter-Terrorism group is better. But don't try and say that your helicopters are better, let alone any other aircraft you have. Maybe in WWII
@bigc0225 We have the fastest helicopter on earth. Nuff said. Secondly, many of the aircraft America produces have alot of British Input. BEA Systems works closey with Lockheed Martin, developing many products. The F-35 is like 40% British- The Tail end, the computer systems etc... America still uses our 50 year old Harriers too.
@36psi Ha! Wow! Firstly if my father was a faggot he wouldn't have had me,(You're the prick obviously if you couldn't work that one out)secondly you're American which means you're a fucking cunt, also you would never EVER have the chance to own a TVR so FUCK OFF, I think you have a bad case of jealousy HAHAHAHA! Oh god yeh the feeling from a TVR V8 is like nothing else you should try it, oh and the speed sixes weren't bad either LOL oops I forgot you cant! Oh and use spell check you need it twat
@36psi My father used to own a TVR dealership, He used to take me home in Cerbera's Chimera's and Griffith's and sorry to burst your bubble but we lived an hour from his business and we never broke down ONCE! So to all those people who say TVR's are unreliable get fucked, have you ever owned one? NO? ITS HEAR SAY and the people who have problems with cars are the ones who cant afford to run the bastards in the first place! FACT! Ferrari and Lamborghini are just as bad but no one complains!? WHY?
@RobertHamilton85 I don't think it's the fact that they break down, it's the time it takes to fix them. I know a guy who waited for 4 months for a simple engine problem to get fixed. Turned out that they accidentally put the wrong engine back into the car which was heavily modified. I think it was worth the wait xD
@RobertHamilton85 Went back to the factory in blackpool haha. Was a Sagaris straight 6. My uncle had a 5L Chimaera for years and it never broke down once, Made me brown my undies a few times though.. 130MPH into oncoming traffic on a coastal road...
@liamcollister Yeh I had an experience like that, on an A-road in a Cerbera 4.5 (before the LightWeight versions) and holy sh*t the guy who was driving me raced Caterhams, I still haven't achieved myself to pass as many cars and don't think I ever will unless I buy a 4.5, but we must have taken 14 cars in one go and at the last minute we got back in as another car was coming the other way I don't know what speed we hit but it was well into the 100s im sure!
Is this a Tuscan? Why the censorship in the speedometer? Afraid to get in trouble with the law? Most TVR´s only show a huge digital tachometer like in the Tuscan. Others like the Tamora, have barely visible needles. That, plus the quality of the video, would make it impossible for the law to get evidence on you.
this guy has a big pair of balls lol they are a death trap. I have drove a speed 6 2nd gear around a round about back end will find a lamp post to introduce itself to lol.
OK LETS PUT THIS RIGHT.......that is a TVR Tamora and i know this from the interior and the sound..a tuscan is deeper, the t350 sagaris has a roof, the cebera has a v8 and so does the chimaera and griffith and the newer tuscan has a visible bump on the hood
@sootyferrari65 its a TUSCAN - look at the buttons around by the gaitor.... the Tamora has a much flatter, less cluttered dash/interior, the steering wheel is also totally different.
@Thor2233 What are you retarded? Firstly, i never said Chimaera's had anything other than a V8 in them. And only a 2-bit idiot would think this is a Chimaera. I dont even own a TVR and could tell you that. Sort your own brain out before you start questioning others...
Correction to the modified exhaust part when they were making the tuscan they had a problem with the exhaust it was too loud and it rattled alot by the end of them designing a new exhaust they turned around and said "Why buy a quiet car when you could have a monster" and thats where the tvr gets it sound from a design fault that every tvr driver loves. Gotta love the brittish cars shame theres not many brittish cars been made anymore :(
Damn!

Shame TVR sold out to the Russians and got closed down. Tuscan racing was my favorite series, especially when Peter Wheeler used to race. Now this is just another former British car company. TVR used to make most of their cars for export... to the south of England. But in the end they were still corporate sellouts.

@scrotillathehun its not a V8...its a straight 6, we don't buy V8's because they're too expensive to run as fuel costs over here are ridiculous, perhaps we should take a leaf out of your book and start invading oil producing countries, pretend we're their mates build McDonalds, Starbucks, and other fat engorged outlets and see how long it takes the locals to start waddling like you lot, fat outta shape, loud, obnoxious, country invading twats....

@kpnutswales Your fuel is so expensive because you have a socialist prison state, where you have no right to protect yourself, and the elites keep importing 3rd-Worlders to displace the native Anglo-Saxons. Don't forget the VAT, as well. There is no "value added" when govt takes another slice of the pie you worked for as a private individual!

@36psi The reason you don't have TVR's is because they are too dangerous for American market, it is a fact that cars for the American market have a softer setup than those for the European market.

@PoliticalAdverts Actually our gas is not "watered down". Octane is simply a rate of how long it takes before it ignites due to compression. Not how much/little filler or "water" in your opinion. Plus its not like your gas is expensive because its such a high octane. I can buy 104 octane gas for $5.12 right now at my local performance station. Plus we offer Ethanol Gas. A car that has been tuned for running on ethanol will produce more power than almost all octanes of gasoline.

@clivereid Dear Clive, I never said the Speed Six had a V8. I was responding to the bigoted comments made by another Briton. Had you been paying attention to the conversation you'd have known that but from the looks of your profile you were probably too busy gaming and watching videos of burnouts to actually pay attention before opening your cheeky, half-educated mouth. Good luck, mate.
zapwatt 6 months ago
@zapwatt After re-reading the posted comments, yours still reads as if you are commenting on the vehicle featured in this video (your use of the words "this one" when referring to an engine). If you meant the Buick / Rover V8 that TVR used in the '90s, you are correct: It was originally an American design. However, the Speed Six as featured in the Tuscan in this video is a British engine. I have nothing against the U.S. at all and find the Internet "tough guy" arguments posted here pathetic.
clivereid 6 months ago
@Cerberuselite - the Buick 215 was a very advanced engine when launched in 1961: all-alloy construction. Having been abandoned by them (and Oldsmobile, I think), it was bought by Rover, relaunched in 1967 and remained in production in Land Rovers until 2004, and remains in small-scale production to this day. It went into just about everything, TVRs, Triumph TR8s, Morgans, Westfields, Bowlers etc... it's a very strong, reliable and tunable engine, one of the all-time greats. Some fat useless POS!
EccentricRichard 6 months ago
@Cerberuselite - also, TVR eventually dropped the Rover V8 and introduced that weird AJP8 thing, flat plane crank and narrow 60-degree bank spacing. Apparently it was 2/3 of an intended V12 (as seen in the Speed 12), but the V12 never got off the ground and the AJP8 was destined to remain an oddity. Sounds weird.

@mopar43v3r So taking an engine that started with about 150bhp and turning into an engine producing about 350bhp isn't making it better? As for failing to make V8s, Aston Martin, Daimler, Jaguar, Lotus and Rolls Royce say you're wrong. And if we can't make V8s then how come half the cars currently running in F1 and ALL the cars currently running in Indycar are powered by British V8s?

@t45tube So you think you're the only country that modifies engines to make more power? And what about the many many British cars that use american V8's because theres no better alternative?

mopar43v3r 5 months ago
@mopar43v3r Where did I say Britain is the only country that modifies engines to make more power? And yes, a lot of British cars have used American V8s because they provide a lot of power for relatively little money. I've driven British cars with small block or LS Chevy V8s and small block or modular Ford V8s, and they've all gone very well so I'm not knocking American V8s. As for Indycar, Honda gave the job of designing & building its Indycar engines to Ilmor Engineering in the UK.

Is this a Tuscan? Why the censorship in the speedometer? Afraid to get in trouble with the law? Most TVR´s only show a huge digital tachometer like in the Tuscan. Others like the Tamora, have barely visible needles. That, plus the quality of the video, would make it impossible for the law to get evidence on you.
