Hello there Johno...i thought it a bit spooky that the name and handle were a bit similar! I'm just about to join the ranks of you S owners, picking an S2 up this w/end, so there will be another S zipping about north kent pretty soon !!

Mark.

Well you should come along to the Mid Kent meets. We're and amiable bunch and do organise a fair amount of runs here and abroad etc etc..

There are 3 regular S's that come along...

Johno

....and some irregular ones. To be fair all the S owner's are looking at trying to upgrade to Griffiths or Cerberra's though

We meet at the White Horse in Sandway on the 1st Sunday of each month and at the Windmill at Hollingbourne on the 3rd Wednesday of each month.

M@H,

If it were me I'd be more creative with a second tag name etc etc...

Thanks for the tip-off on the mid-kent meets, i will do my best to make it there, as i am a complete TVR virgin and will rely massively on the info/experience you guys have ! Any tips, things to be wary of? Got a great insurance quote from Classicline £310 f.comp (i'm 34).
Johno and M'oh, your banter reminds me of the two old guys in the balcony on the muppets!...no offence!!

You seem very astute! Your comparison with the Muppet Show is much closer than you think.


NB. I lied, actually the old doddery one is me.

Kieran..i wouldn't say it was standard. I phoned loads of companies and the price ranged from £310 upto £840 !!..Classicline and Mayfair were the best by far.

I had high hopes for Mannings, but i got a crap response from them. Without even asking me how old i was and what type of TVR i was buying, they just said that because i hadn't owned one yet or done at least 5000 miles in one, they couldnt insure me and told me to phone Directline !...nice attitude !..and they are the official TVRCC insurers !?

They said similar to me, basically because I’m under 25, although they did run a quote through as if I was 25 so I knew what to expect next year. They were very helpful and told me a few good places to call.

PaulV - where did you get your insurance and how much did you pay?

I am 24 and my insurance is £1200 (albeit with protected NCB which adds almost £200!)
