Sorry darren... did not think people were sensitive about colour..
is it because red ones are faster (can of worms open )

Slip of the finger, should be HHC, still nice to be spotted after only 4 months of ownership

Paul more time on the road mate less time shopping thats the way to be spotted

By the way green is the fastest, who ever heard of of british racing red or pink?

Hi Andy

Could i ask a small favour, a friend of mine from 'down south' is after details of the paint codes TVR used for the grey cars, his is a similar colour to yours, but it's on a 94. Next time your with your car (and the missus isn't off shopping in it!) could you check the handbook paint colour name and paint reference.

Cheers

Paul

Ahem...this from the man with the Barbie Pink one.......

However, on the subject of how quick they all are, it'd be interesting to get a few side by side on an airfield/track. Didn't make the NETVRCC meet on Sunday, was the rolling road trip mentioned?

Cheers

Paul,
No problem. The paint colour is Lotus Titanium Metallic (it even sounds fast )
Unfortunately the code hasn't been entered in the handbook, so next time it's out of the garage I'll check under the bonnet for the code.

Cheers
Andy

Rolling road trip? Side by side on a track? If you scratch that lovely car matey, you're in big trouble!

Hi Andy,

Regarding the Rolling Rdtrip, Don asked me to arrange it for May some time and I'm currently waiting for the college to come back to me with dates.

Paul,

Just took a peek under the bonnet and the paint code is P422-MLL9B, Lotus Titanium.

Hope that helps.
