Picking up a 1999 Cerbera Speed Six on Saturday and was wondering if anyone could recommend a driving course that are has been specially tailored for TVR's?

Any other comments or suggestions that may help me to increase my enjoyment whilst driving the car will also be greatly appreciated.

Cheers!

Have a good w/e all.

I have done several days with Julian @ RideDrive - all TVR days and the last being the advanced day with track (Haynes @ Sparkford). Just do it, you'll end up with great respect for their drivers, great respect for your car, a far better driving ability - oh and a bloody great grin!!

To sum up - great day, so relaxed you don't notice quite how much you're learning until a week or so later when it's now an automatic reation.

If you're in any doubt have a chat with him @ PF - top bloke who loves cars...
