Just popped over to Racing Green in Ash Vale and I have just recently moved to Farnham and seems to be the nearest TVR dealership to have a nosy around, Hawthorn's Racing is quite near to me but don't seem to have anything to do with TVRs any more. Anyway saw that green sagaris demonstrator, as featured in the promotional video, noticed the bottom of the front clip quite ragged, must have had quite a hard life.

Nice to still see a showroom full of TVRs these days!

Asked about the spares situation and they reckon things are actually becoming a bit easier now TVR power have taken over that side of things.

Upstairs, they have a cracking range of Jags, e-types, (including light weight) and some very nice c-type replicas. Downstairs there is a 460bhp Jaguar XKR which looks quite interesting.

Couldn't agree more, they are just down the road from me too and I think they are a great bunch of lads. Martin has always been helpful and very knowledgeable whenever I have been in.

Gareth, the XKR, looks fanatastic, I was there last week and they also had in a Mosler, in the same colour green as the Sag.

They do have a stunning array of vehicles lick

Agreed


Just drop my Cerb off at RG this afternoon for Service & MOT, followed by 2 hrs on the train to get home - so they must be good !!

Martin is always very helpful, a very good team and always great service

I followed Chas (who used to deal with just the Jag side of things at Racing Green but now is also involved with the TVR side of the business) back from the recent Virginia Waters meet. He was in the supercharged XKR and I was in my M3 - I can vouch that the XKR is VERY quick.
