The TVR 2500M was the brand's primary offering for the United States market from 1972 to 1977. It used the 2.5-liter inline-6 and 4-speed gearbox from the Triumph TR6, a move made to meet strict US emissions regulations of the era. Built on TVR's new M-Series backbone chassis and wrapped in a distinctive fiberglass body, the 2500M offered a raw, lightweight sports car experience.
Collectors appreciate the 2500M for its rarity and its connection to the more common TR6, which makes sourcing mechanical parts relatively easy. The fiberglass body means rust isn't an issue for the panels, but the steel tube chassis is famously susceptible to corrosion. It's a car that rewards hands-on owners who value a pure, unfiltered driving connection over outright speed or modern comforts.
Buying Tips
- The steel tube chassis is the single most important inspection point. Check for rust and previous repairs on the outriggers and suspension mounts, as proper fixes often require lifting the body.
- Examine the fiberglass body for stress cracks, especially around the doors and hood openings, which can indicate frame flex or past damage.
- The Triumph TR6 engine is robust, but listen for timing chain noise and check for oil leaks. Ensure the twin Stromberg carburetors are balanced for smooth running.
- Inspect the interior for water damage from leaking window and door seals. Sourcing original TVR-specific trim and switchgear can be challenging.
- Check that all electronics function correctly, as wiring from this period can be unreliable. Many owners have upgraded the fuse box and wiring.
