What a shame, sodding weather, but I was there!
Loads of cars, loads of people, bucket loads of water. So me and the mrs decide to have a look round the house, and when we come back out everyones gone!

Did meet a nice bloke by the name of flasher! apparently he quite well known in TVR circles and he's the flash bugger in the beautiful yellow tamora. Quite fancy one in this colour myself but me wife said, there's more chance of her having one than me. Not quite sure what she meant by that.

We stuck it out after most of you lot went off, and low and behold at about 16:45 the sun comes out and its amazing the change in the place. Called in and had a meal on the way home, result, a lovely day was had.

Did see Johno's ( the legend ) car parked outside the tent and it looks nice (you will need to do something with those clocks mate).

tried to find him as I owe him a pint but no joy.

I would like to thank everyone for the event who was involved for a great effort. Whens the next one!

All the best,

Gadgit.

Patrick,

Gutted I missed you !!! M@H and I even rearranged the car parking so we could get some shots of our 2 cars together (sister cars).

The clocks are looking rather sad admittedly, but I'm waiting for the opportunity to send them to Speedy Cables to have them done. Problem is I need the car as my everyday Transport and therefor the clocks are pretty much needed !!

I was wandering around with my parents English Bullterrier for a while aswell. Actually came in the same convoy as Flasher and can confirm the Tamora shifts when required...

Next time Patrick !

Cheers

Mark
PS - It was great to meet PeterC and M@H at last. Cheers PeterC for the parts manual, mucho grassy ass !!!

I was there and got soaking wet trolling around the car park meeting people. Car was great and only let in a couple of drips - me included.

Dozens & dozens of TVR's, every shape and colour far to many to mention. If we got this many in the wet, how many would turn up on a sunny day? M@H took loads of pictures and hopefully some will get published on here?

Through the meet at Chatsworth, I put into circulation photo-copies of an TVR 'S' Series parts manual, the reference guide used by your friendly TVR dealership to order parts. If you have access to a copy it makes identifying and ordering parts through the dealership that much easier.

There are 4 copies out there given to S owners in N.Yorks, Herefordshire, E.Mids & S.London. The manual includes exploded drawings of all the major component groups such as the suspendion, fuel system, transmission etc., etc., and lists all the TVR part numbers.

These copies should be used to make further copies to distribute to other S owners and so on. They should be available for free or for a small charge to cover photocopying.

Anyone on here pick up this list? Just wondering that if you did, you wouldn't mind scanning it or something and put it somewhere that the remainder of S owners could get access to it. If it can't be scanned but could be copied then drop me an email through my profile and I'll cover your costs
It'd be much appreciated I'm sure.

I think johno and M&H got a copy - I'd like a copy too, perhaps the guys could get some done for PH4.

Cheers,

The TVR S3 manual runs to some 90 (ninety) pages. Copying at a copy shop is going to work out at around £4 to £5 a go, plus postage costs. This is why I circulated copies the way I did.

Please remember the costs involved when asking people to let you have a copy.

I will continue to filter out copies to regions around the UK for copying on to others as and when I can.
