What kind of TVR? Lots of them are in the US, lots being a relative term.

Well there are a lot of them to choose from but from the 80's there is the Wedge. Neat looking car, almost TR7/TR8'ish looking.

How about Renault Alphine? I assume nobody can fix it here.

That's OK, there aren't that many people over in Europe who can fix them either .

Drivetrain is pretty much pure PSA. They're not really complex mechanically, but you might have to be willing to ship parts across from Europe.

While we're rolling out the oddball choices, consider the Fiat 131 Mirafiori

And the Opel Manta GTE

Wow I've never seen half of these cars, real cool stuff. For me I'd like a small diesel pickup/utility vehicle. Sports cars are great but I think having something easily serviceable might be important. If you broke a windshield or tail light on some of those cars you are talking big $$$$ for repairs. Whatever you get make sure you can get parts, I'd hate to have to import parts to get wear and tear items.

Speaking of flares, I'll take a Saab 900 Enduro, fresh from Australia:

Fiat 131 Mirafiori And the Opel Manta GTE

Are those findable and inexpensive?
