Evening all. Just a quickie to say I'm back with another TVR 420SE. Absent after a few years with Merc 32Sl's, MG's & Scimitars. A bit hairy this one but true to form on viewing one headlight refused to work much to the frustration of the owner. Just got laugh at TVR's. So now doubt lots of questions, although I did own a 350i. Nearly the same? Cheers all. John C.

Welcome back to wedging thumbup

Hairy? The used car guide at the back of Practical Classics used to rate the 350i as 'hairy-chested' and the 390/420SE as 'hairy-ar53d' so maybe there's your answer biggrin

The same but different. All the wedge character with even more propensity to throw you into the scenery if you get carried away.
Good luck...

Yep, I guess you'd just visit the scenery quicker?

Welcome back John

I assume you are the new owner of the Firefox 420se.

Regards Karl.

I think so if it's Wayne's previous car which went to Spain at some point?
