Cars
Model-by-model reference: Cerbera, Tuscan, Sagaris, Griffith, Chimera. Years, engines, what to look for, what to avoid.
TVR Wiki
Restoration notes, model reference, and the messy reality of keeping British sports cars alive.
What this is
Section titled “What this is”A working set of notes about owning and restoring TVRs — written by someone in the middle of doing it, not from a textbook. Some pages are deep; some are stubs that will fill in as the work happens.
Engines
The TVR-designed AJP8 (V8) and Speed Six (straight-six) — basic facts, common faults, and links to the deep ECU territory.
Mods & conversions
Real-world modifications walked through honestly. Quad headlamp conversions, suspension bush replacement, DIY 3D-printed parts.
Restoration arcs
The Cheapest TVR Cerbera build, episode by episode, with cross-links to the YouTube videos.
Why this exists
Section titled “Why this exists”Most TVR information lives in scattered forum threads, Facebook groups, and one or two paid resources. This wiki is an attempt to put what I learn from each restoration session into a single searchable place, with honest notes about what worked and what didn’t.
It’s built and maintained as a side-effect of the mattgreenworks YouTube channel — every PT video adds a page or two here.
