Even though I know its in been spotted in various states of assembly, I have been told we will be able to collect it from the TVR centre hopefully on Saturday 19th June. I am so excited! So if anyone is going to the factory this week or next say hi to it from me!

Be prepared for some serious fun & a bit of hassle.

Also, remember to take your bank card everywhere, as 5 minute drive seem to last an hour.

Got my 350C on friday, and have filled up 4 times now.

Excellent news. You sleeping OK? I'm not - I don't collect mine until mid next week and it seems years away. I was hoping to collect this weekend, but TVR didn't supply the paint needed to redo their crappy work in time. (Red Glow Pearlescent, need to get it from the factory as it's new apparently.)

I wish I'd taken pictures of the crappy job TVR let out of the factory - blister on the front wheel arch and a really obvious paint run next to the headlight cowling.

Yes, saw the pics you posted yesterday - looks the same. I had the dealer wheel it out of the showroom into direct sunlight before I decided to buy it - looks nice in the shade, but comes alive in the sun. I just wish it was ready this weekend ... oh well, off to the motorshow instead.
