They look very nice - perfect colour combo. I see you're parked a long way from the kerb - on purpose I assume :-)

Wow! That's exactly the colour combination I would have had on a T350. It makes you realize how closely related the Sagaris is.

Needless to say my Sagaris has been ordered in that colour. Sometimes I think I should have gone for a t350 as it's just a useful bit more subtle. It's more 'whattheheckwasthat!' than 'notice me dammit'! Any more pics?

Just out of interest....what you doing with your silver spiders (or did these get re-sprayed)?

I actually just had my Spiders repainted. Racing Green used Spit & Polish (the company, not the method!) and did the set for 300 + vat all in - refurbished the wheels and repainted them. The finish is fantastic. I compared them to factory anthracites and mine seem a little darker and shiner. Very pleased with the resullt. and loads less hassle/expense than ordering new Spiders and selling the old ones.

Salty, I will ignore your comment...

If that's iced titanium, it now looks exactly the same as mine. Nice choice !

Yes, it's iced titanium. Nice choice yourself sir! Any pics of yours? What's your interior colour?

No pictures yet - I haven't figured out how to do that.

The interior is mulberry and black, with mulberry to all the upper surfaces, roll cage, door inserts, seat surrounds. I got black alcantara for the seat base and back ...

Looks nice cos you can see the flash of dark red, in contrast to the iced titanium ...

Thinking of getting new seat for it though, so that I don't have to sit at the 5 degree angle. I will see if I can get the new TVR ones retro-fitted when they are available.

Let us all know what happens with your seat investigations - the current seats are not very supportive and the angling inwards is indeed annoying.

I thought about unbolting one and trying to put spacers in to level it, but I think the backrest would rub agains't the roll cage. I might still take a seat out and see what I can do.

My dealer suggested they could set the seats up as part of the PDI for me when i collect it - similar to the pedals etc.... - i.e. adjust the angle to how i would prefer it....i assume they'd use spacers of some sort?
