The Tasmin was the last TVR ever sold new in the United States, with the final car shipped over in 1987.

The Tasmin was a parts-bin special in the best way: door handles from a Cortina, taillights from a Capri or Renault Fuego, a handbrake from a Lotus Esprit — and, on later cars, an ashtray lifted straight from a DeLorean.
