BIG thanks to Ian and Luca B.

Turn your speakers UP. You just cannot beat these cars for pure grin factor!!!

BTW Any impression of speed is purely a result of digital enhancement and special effects!

Works fine. Great vid !!!!! He's right about the volume knob needing to be turned up. I'm listening to it in the background while typing this reply.....the sound is soooooo TVR.

Sports exhaust it is! Only downside is that it doesn't sound so loud inside the car.

Frightens small children and animals though.....

That is one class vid... wanna see you do a little more with her than just cruise

You know the sound I really love, is the Ferrari exhaust note... anyone here have any ideas if that note is possible using some off the shelf exhaust system (I doubt it, but then again, nothings impossible)... or will that note never grace another brand?

But a griff with a full 3-4" pipe custom complete system is one that you guys need to hear... TVR grumbles to the n-th degree!

Now, if only my Griff was just a bit louder.....

Okay, that's it, i've had enough of posts like this! B*llocks to the lot of you, i'm hacked off now.



Neil, where d'you get your exhaust? I think i need to get one for my Chim...

How about sleeving the standard exhaust system? I "hear" it's cheap and very effective.

Exhaust was modified by Portfield Sports and Classics in 1999 for £142.50 + VAT. They are in Chichester and sold the car to it's previous owner. GOOD VALUE I reckon!

Neil - nice to hear my old car again .. that exhaust still sounds great .. Portfield did the exhaust at a good price for me.

Nice to see that you are still have the large grin that a Griff gives you all

The full feature length version is on DVD, sounds even better in full surround sound (makes your hair stand on end, or would if I had some), but is being worked on in a more downloadable format - more or less as we speak!

Now where's the best place to get some more milk....

Scotland?

or

The Alps?

Even better value when the previous owner pays for it
