TVR Sagaris.

                                                TVR Sagaris.

The TVR Sagaris is a sports car designed and built by the British manufacturer TVR in their factory in Lancashire.
The Sagaris made its debut at the MPH03 Auto Show in 2003. The pre-production model was then shown at the 2004 Birmingham Motorshow. In 2005 the production model was released for public sale at TVR dealerships around the world. Based on the TVR T350, the Sagaris was designed with endurance racing in mind. Several design features of the production model lend themselves to TVR's intentions to use the car for such racing. The multitude of air vents, intake openings and other features on the bodywork allow the car to be driven for extended periods of time on race tracks with no modifications required for cooling and ventilation. The final production model came with several variations from the pre-production show models e.g. the vents on the wings are filled in, different wing mirrors, location of the fuel filler and bonnet hinges. There are other subtle differences as well.

Engine is the same homegrown TVR unit used in the Tuscan S, a 4.0-litre straight-six producing 406bhp. Zero to 60mph is done and dusted in 3.9 seconds; top speed is 185mph

Under the Sagaris’s extraordinary skin are, broadly, the structure and mechanicals of a Tamora or T350, including TVR’s own 4-litre straight-six engine, here uprated to 400 precisely metered bhp. A low-slung racing version of the T350 sowed the Sagaris seed, which is why the Sagaris really does look like a racing car for the road. You can even see the depressions in the tops of the front wings where a race car would have air vents to relieve front-end lift, but to open the holes on a road car is to find your windscreen in the firing line of all sorts of road debris.

Sagaris' body is much wider and lower than the T350 from which is derives its overall shape. Many aerodynamic devices have been affixed,The plush interior equips facilities like aircon, leather seats, alloy knobs, onboard PC, slots for DVD and CD (for musical comfort while driving) and of course spacious boot to keep large volumes of baggage , all of which is meant to make the drive comfy and luxurious. You also have buttons to control the windows and the radio. There is a speedometer and revometer on the dash board, which move in clockwise and anti-clockwise direction.
