Welcome, that does look nice. Just in time for the nice weather.

Don't let anyone convince you to sell those original indicator lenses cheap!

Lot's of great help advice here.
Enjoy,
Gary

Hi Nigel, great choice! love the colour & the later bonnet. Try to keep the sun off the walnut dash, They bubble & split like crazey and are a bit of a git to change. But yours realy does look smart. Hope you will be keeping it in the garage

Hi Nigel,

Welcome to TVR ownership and to this forum. You'll not regret the purchase (mostly anyway and on the days when you feel like you might you'll get all the help you'll need from the friendly folk on here to get you going again).

Nice colour combination by the way and I too like the later bonnet.

more rhetorical as it's probably prohibitive cost wise!!
