V8Ss are like buses...

V8Ss are like buses, none around when you want one, but then they all arrive together!

How come that there are so many V8Ss for sale this year, just when I want to sell mine?

I thought the same and had to virtually give it away in the end, but its gone to a good home now which sounds daft but is important to me.

Hi Andrew,

Sorry to hear the S hasn't shifted yet, but I'm sure you're still having fun with it...?

I've now got mine back for good now after almost 3 1/2 months at Dulford and enjoying it more than ever. Just arrived at work having driven down from Bristol, though had to keep it nice and slow to save a bit of petrol. Couldn't be arsed to stop to get some!

Probably yes....

I am looking at the moment [I'm sure I emailed you for some details...and more piccies!]

I'm not keen on the stripe and sticker though
Still....that'll come off won't it...

Where are you geographically speaking?

Send me some more pics if you have '[e-mail]

[V8S]

I can't say I like the stripe and sticker look on the S series, just as the TURBO sticker down the side of a Taimar seems to push the boundaries of taste somewhat, but DM's car is a fine example that sounds nice.

Hi Jon,
I though I had emailed you some pictures, maybe they didn't get through. I'll send some more.

The stripe and V8S sticker are standard. I wouldn't like to say whether they would come off easily though.

I'm between Southampton and Salisbury.

I wasn't implying that you had put stickers on your car BTW......

[pstruck]

So why is everyone selling their V8S's? All this temptation is just not good - I have a wedding to pay for!

I wonder how much I could scrape together if we went without the honeymoon/flowers/champagne/etc.....

[V8S]

Mine is for sale, Pete!













Not!

That's ok, I didn't think that your were.
I just meant that for a "classic" shape TVR of the 80's/90's the markings are typical of the era and of course they also indicate that the paintwork is original and not resprayed.

[gorvid]

Thats a good point....
I think I just prefer the cleaner lines [the S is so pretty after all] I think the same of the Porsche graphics...
