A bit of a change to our usual schedule, the live draw for the 1989 TVR S2 2.9 V6 was drawn during the day this time. A start time of 10 am saw many tuned in from home to find out if they were the lucky winner of this bright red bruiser. The car itself […]
Recently our technician Paul completed a full service and inspection on the 1989 TVR S2 2.9 V6 in at Bridge Classic Cars. As part of all inspections, every part of the car was thoroughly checked not only for safety but also for any cosmetic issues that were present on this special 1980s sportscar. On his […]
One of the key parts of any classic sportscar is handling. That playful, light-handed feeling whilst out on a spirited drive where the car becomes an extension of the driver.

Our incredibly talented in-house trim expert Brian has been working on the roof of the 1989 TVR SII. The old roof had begun to look quite tired and had sun-bleached in places. Brian worked his magic on the material of the roof and the removable panels to give this convertible a new lease of life. […]
