Tuning a Cerbie or "when too much is barely enough"
It looks pretty well done though; Nice too see some German blokes are seriously on TVRs.
There are some pictures of this car on "www.pikeynet.com": see "motoring" then "GTs at Brands" year 2001

I'd just love half his money. Maybe he'll send me last year's car.

Get in the queue - this car looks awsome. How much are RR's on the second hand market (not seen any yet?)

What makes you so confident in the Tuscan R?

Thom,

have seen the racecars and that makes me very confident.

I also hope to see some more this year to do the development work for me.

I'm very tempted about that package.

Yes that's right, the race cars are proving well; and TVR seems to be making great efforts to develop the TuR
I hope the "road" version will outclass any TVR we've seen yet and any other road sports car

Sorry I quite didn't understand that;
Do you mean:
a)you are going to see the development work directly through the team as kind of guest
b)you are waiting for the race cars to do the development work so you can buy thrustfully?

Knight Rider ?

It'd be better without the black wheels.

WOW Christof... what can I say... I really LOVE your Cerbera.
Heh, actually I love all TVRs, but this black one is a real beauty.
I hope you will be happy with your Tuscan R when you get it.

Race cars don't have to last very long until the next engine rebuild but a road going tvr with this much poke is surely asking for trouble in reliability. The standard new cars seem bad enough, judging by these owners comments on this link:

We hadn't been waiting for another Porsche owner to tell us that...

Does his name make him a Porsche owner we ask?

Paul911tt can you give us an idea of what you drive or does your name speak for your wheels?

Cheers
