Its design is heavily influenced by TVR's racing heritage, with aerodynamics playing a significant role in its development. It is named after the ancient Greek battle-axe, the sagaris. The Sagaris was built on an evolutionary chassis that was used in previous TVR models, with some modifications to make it stiffer and more responsive. The car is powered by a 4.0-liter straight-six engine developed by TVR's engineering team, producing 406 horsepower and 349 lb-ft of torque. This potent powerplant propels the Sagaris from 0-60 mph in just 3.9 seconds and has a top speed of 186 mph.

One of the unique features of the Sagaris is its bodywork, which consists of lightweight composite materials. The car's aggressive styling is accented by its sloping roofline, dramatically flared wheel arches, and dramatic rear diffuser.

The limited production numbers of the Sagaris, combined with its unique styling and impressive performance, make it a highly collectible car. The rarity of the Sagaris means that it is highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of British sports cars, with prices for well-maintained examples commanding high prices at auction.

The TVR factory was in Blackpool, about 90 minutes from me. I went there about five years ago - sadly after they'd shut down - to watch a celebratory parade and meeting of a good hundred or so TVRs of all ages. Quite a sight!
