TVR models

Trade in: the TVR

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the TVR; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Thinking about the TVR? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.

Recalls and complaints

Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.

What the specs mean

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Best uses

It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

A longer test drive

Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.

Picking a year and a trim

If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Each TVR model page lists its years, so you can see which ones changed. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

What it costs to run

Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Still deciding?

Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a TVR from us first.

Buying the TVR

Does CarmaCars sell the TVR?

Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.

Can I rent a TVR before I buy one?

Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.

Where do the figures come from?

Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
