Bruce - That's excellent news.

Good to meet you Saturday, sorry we didn't get to talk for long, but I didn't
like to interupt, as you looked like a man on a mission!

Do keep me updated on the build progress and I hope to see it on www.T350R.co.uk shortly.

Excellent news. You're going to be one of a select bunch judging by the recent info from the factory. I wonder what proportion of T350s are Coupes vs Targas.

Very nice colour choice for the exterior (I'd have gone for a grey combo on the interior, but then I need my eyes testing so what do I know).

[brucefair]

bad news.

They wont let me have the halcyon midas as part of the 'pearl paint included' offer. It's an extra £960, plus i need a gps tracker for insurance (£500) which makes it a £43k car and i dont wanna pay that much, given you can pick one up for £6k less that is 6mths old.

They offered me the 'sunset yellow' pearl instead - anyone know the difference between the two colours?

I dont think anyone can convince me to part with £960 sobs for a paint job, but atm it's a showstopper as i havent seen anything else i like.... we'll see what they say, but the deposit is refundable in the t's and c's now...

Good to see you too Graham!

Cheers, Bruce

Sorry to hear that Bruce.

Here is a Sunset yellow Cerbera

I'm so bored I'm looking at paint samples for you! Nearly time to go home.

Sunset looks a deeper lusher more orangie yellow than Halycon. Halycon almost has a white/metallic effect in it in comparison.

Ask your dealer to post you a sample of each - they usually have sample cards printed up.

That's interesting...

Didn't Silverstone TVR have a few other cars alreaqdy in stock in nice colours. they had a Red Glow Pearlescent Coupe which looked very nice (totally non-biased).

Personally I think that Sunset yellow will not work well on a T350 - the Halcyon Midas Pearl yellow works well though.

Mind you, Racing Green had a nice yellow targa with carbon coloured roof panels in stock recently - I guess it's sold by now.

Gatwick have the Motor Show T350t, £43,940 to you.

If you look on the register I have just purchased a T350t in yellow.

Looks the part but is a very big attraction to a lot of flies!

fantastic car

I still need your info Stag!

If your insurance company is demanding a tracker, just shop around for a company that doesent Try Sunninghill

Owning a halycon midas tamora has defiantely confirmed to me that this is a great colour choice! I am interested they have sold so many tamoras, ie 320, as your would think it did not sell! On the fly statement I must say its annoying but the yellow is so nice.
