It could have been us, we were heading for Gloucester avoiding the closed M4 but mine is black green so you can't usually see that it's green!

Could well have been you then was certainly a very dark green

Hope you made good time on the diversion.

It was a bit of a slog, there was half the country taking the same diversion and the clutch is reasonably heavy in a Chim smile

We also had to effect running repairs... when a seatbelt jammed on, I know that TVRs don't have a reputation for being reliable but that was mildly funny! Anyway.... new seatbelts ordered now.

I had a seatbelt jam on in my chim, on my last trip out. I searched on the internet, as we where mid journey. One article said yank as hard as you can. Eat voila it has worked. When I checked the service history the belts had been replaced within past two years. Having cycled the belts and activating the inertia numerous time they appear to be working normally (watch this space).
