Is it getting much harder to get parts for S1's or is it just me - I've phoned round 5 different TVR suppliers in the past couple of days but I'm still having no luck in obtaining the following parts for my 1988 S1:

Pair of heater slide control knobs (no jokes please!)
Pair of window winder handles with centre 'nut' covers intact.
A new perspex warning lights cover.
Nearside bonnet release cable (for a single pull bonnet release).
Pair of door handles with keys and locks.

Any contact numbers for breakers etc would be greatfully recieved..

Nick,

If you find a couple of spare perspex warning light covers, I would be grateful if you could let me know. I have the smoked perspex version on my S2, which has been damaged and could do with replacing it.

Thanks, Jas.

Guys,

Christopher Neil's in Norwich can supply the bonnet release cable and the perspex warning light cover. I got mine from their within the last two months. They advertise in Sprint. Any problems drop me an email and I can supply telephone number.

OK guys - dont all rush . . . from my S1 days, I have an unmarked, brand new (still with cellophane cover) black perspex warning light strip with the 10 warning icons etched into it. I believe there were two versions in different thicknesses, the one I have is just under 1 mm thick (or thin!). It cost me £6.02 - still marked on the bag! Interested?

The number for Christopher Neil's is 01606 41481 in case anyone else needs it. I'll call them on Monday and let you know how I got on. It's the cover that goes ontop of the warning symbols I'm looking for, but i'f you've got any of the other parts please let me know. Thanks.

Keith,

Yes please! Any suggestions as to how we can 'do the deal?' I'm in Essex, where are you based? Or go for Royal Mail maybe?
