Hello All.
Please read the attached e mail below.
I run a kit car club and one of my members brothers is in a very poor state of health,as you will see from the e mail his final wish is to be taken out in a TVR.
If you can help please contact Richard or myself.
Richard is willing to cover the cost of fuel etc.
This is a genuine request not a scam to get a ride in a car.
Thanks for any help.

Martin.

Its properly a long shot but do you or any of the club members know of anyone with a TVR . as my brothers has just had his MRI scan results back and there not good , his dizziness and loss of balance is caused my another tumor at the back of his head , there's no chance of a operation but are going to try chemotherapy again . he's allot worse than when he was at AS motor sports and has been in a wheelchair 90% of the time . I have contacted the Suffolk & Norfolk TVRCC and iam waiting to hear back , as the only thing he wants to do before he goes is to go out for a passenger ride in a TVR , so any help or suggestion will be gratefully received , as if not its going to have to be hiring one for a day . if you could email this round please ..


thank you

Piddy, I posted up here: http://www.pistonheads.com/xforums/topic.asp?h=0&a...

Hopefully you'll be able to get more than 1 TVR!

Does he just want TVRs, or a mix of all Sports/Supercars?

OK, Norwich is a bit of a way for me so I'll pass if you don't mind, but hopefuly somebody closer will be able to assist.

Matt. He would prefer a ride out in a TVR but any supercar would be nice if nothing TVR comes along. Unless your talking a convoy and then the more the merrier I guess.

Thainy77 Richard would like to take you up on your offer could you please contact Richard to make arrangments On richard.strike@ntlworld.com

Knight. I'll let richard know and maybe he can sort a date with you.

Thanks again everyone this will mean so much to Richard,Robert and their family.

Hi piddy1, Richard also dropped me a note direct via the TVRCC. I've replied to get a few more details and see if we can sort something out for him.

I am also going along to Snetterton on Sunday. I have a Sagaris and a Griff 500SE. If he would like a ride in either of these, pm me and i will bring which ever one he prefers.
With a number of TVR`s being in attendance at Snetterton, could be the chance of several trips out in various models. I also see that Kevan Gore has placed a thread in the challenge section to see if any race cars are available with 2 seats.
