The cockpit will never let you forget that you are driving a sports machine. Multiple dials and a steering wheel that would look normal in an early Formula One help with the atmosphere.
TVR Tasmin 350i
The TVR 350i was manufactured between 1983 and 1989. Sleek and purposeful in appearance it backed up those looks with the venerable Rover V8 motor. In 350i guise the 3528 cc engine produces 197 bhp, not much by 2023 standards but in 1983 it was phenomenal. That said, even today performance of the 350i remains exciting.

Discovering forgotten makes and models is the lifeblood of our magazine as are the people who cherish them. This month we take a look at three of the most popular British classic sports cars - the Jaguar E-Type, MG MGB Roadster, and Triumph TR6. We also use the MG MGB Roadster to assess how inflation has impacted classic values.

Offering fresh insights into those who organized the event as well as vehicles included for the display. Lots to see and discover.
