V8S in/near Somerset

[ric p]

The time has come to move my cars around (again) and I’m thinking of coming back to the TVR fold after a gap.
I like the idea of a V8S, never having owned an S but Chimaera and several Wedges. However all these generations of cars are older than when I last owned them. I worry that I look back at this golden era with rose tinted glasses. Although some of the appeal is to do some spannering, which my last few cars have not really allowed.
Does anyone local to me run a V8S? I’m between Yeovil/Taunton. If so, any chance of a chat and visit before I obsess over the next car? Or cross it off my bucket list.
All advice, positive or otherwise, gratefully received!

It's a bit quiet here on PH these days, you might try asking on the S Series FB page .... S Series owners and enthusiasts

yeah I've noticed that

I try to post on both unless it is just inane banter - fb is better for that

I bought one from Taunton a couple of months back!
Having a few early issues, bit of bad luck I think, but apart from this have enjoyed it a lot so far. Like the rawness!!

I'm in Taunton. I have a S3 (2.9) Although she's not back on the road yet your welcome to view over a cuppa and chat about them. The engine's out so gives you an idea to see how basic they are to work on. I also have a 350i wedge (4.5) ..... Chalk n' cheese as cars.
