So if you didn't own a TVR
Discussion
Tried the Z06 and it just doesnt work where I live plus its a God awful interior after spending time in the Sag. The HUD is funky, the softer suspension is nice, dont like the size of the car though.
An 8C would be a possibility if Alfa werent being their usual incompetent selves.
Ive currently got a hankering for a 964 T 3.6
Aston Vanq.

Tried the Lotus... not enough power, and TOO light (scary in high winds down the motorway at high speeds)
Tried the Jag... lovely but too remote a feel
Tried the Aston... too heavy, needed more low-down grunt, and let down by its interior
Happy to be back (this last 24 hours hasn't helped, mind!)
Looking forwards:
- Marcos - Making all the right noises (literally) for me at the moment, would want a couple of "unique" personal touches, though, and a nice bit of Year 1/Year 2 depreciation to make a second hand one reasonable
- Wiessman GT. Oh
Get one of those in right hand drive with the front light pods blended in, and I'm there.
- Aston DBS - Well, you would, wouldn't you?
- Noble M14 - But PLEASE put a "man's" engine in it
- Ascari - Someone willing to let me try one and make my mind up? *please*?

Marcos anyone?


Though they are more ££ for less track speed. Marcos is the only TVRish alternative in my opinion. There are plenty of other sportscars but only this one is in the TVR mould.How much like a TVR chassis does this look like ?!?

All it needs is a different body style, Griff or Chim like rather than Cobra. Stick in 550bhp LS7 engine (not typo, is what they do with different ecu and optimised induction!) and performance/£ far in excess of the Marcos, or just about anything else for that matter
