Hi - This is my 1st post so I'd thought I'd say hello. I've owned various TVR's in the past but i'm now in the process of trading in my Griff 500 for a T350t red rose. I went for a test drive last weekend in one and was just so impressed with the go-kart like handling, but I'll probably miss the noise of my old car

Anyway - I deciced to go for Crystal Topaz paint, but couldn't decide what to go for inside. Has anyone got this colour on their car? and if so, what interior did u go for?

Looking forward to some responses
Cheers - Rich.

My Tuscan is Crystal Topaz with a light blue interior. I still think that cream looks fantastic if not a little impractical.

Drop me an email if you'd like to see pics of my interior.

Thanks for all the suggestions - I'll try out the combinations at my dealer this weekend, and make a final decision then.
Rich.

P.S. can't wait until June

Try black with portland stiching and portland seat inserts. Bright colours like magnolia edge to quick IMO. Fluffy colours also make you look like a hairdresser or pimp all of course with present company accepted...

But with Crystal Topaz pearlescing gold, the magnolia sets it off just perfectly...

Now if it was Nuvoula (sp?) Blue (which is silvery) on the outside I'd agree with the choice of Portland Grey (perhaps :hehe).

Jeremy, your talents are wasted if you're anything other than an interior designer...
