Why not bring the Chimaera down to the open day and we can have a chat about the car and answer any questions that you have over the servicing? Worst case you'll have a good drive out and some free food

Hope to see you there.

Cheers

Will do Darren. I live but a stone's throw from Westcott so I'll have to take a 'long-cut' to get a good run out. Ho-hum !!
What time does the event kick off ?

Head on over from late morning, we'll be there from the crack of dawn getting everything ready so if you're too early we might rope you for some conscript labour

If anyone is intersted in how good they are at servicing vehicles here is the good news.

Brian knows more about TVR engines and mechanics than most who pretend to be mechanics

They set up my ten year old chimaera better than any other people ever did over its ten year life.

They are a delight to deal with

The coffee is great---you get to make your own

they make you welcome

OK so they dont valet the car after service but they do fix the problems and set it up right.

And they charge a fair rate

No I dont have shares in the company and I am not easily pleased

I'm in i guess! Any Tivs running up from Southampton? What time you leaving?

They have every time I have been there (although I only found them in January).

Couldn't agree more with your other comments though. Very impressed with all the dealings I have had.

[big g]

I am picking my Cerb up from them on Saturday - I have used them for servicng , advice and repairs and have been very happy. Good guys and very reasonable prices.......I hope :-)

What a fantastic day!

Congratulations to Warren & Charlotte and all the team for puting on a highly succesful open day! We have never seen so many TVR's and Marcos's together looking so good....the concourse competition was a tough call but in the end a Marcos got the most votes. Shame it wasn't a TVR especially as the last Cerb from the Factory was there - great specimen and the number plate summed it up!

The food and drink were also good and the band were impressive! What a great time and it was all for free!!!!

For those that missed out I highly recommend you book it into your diarys for next year as they are hoping to make it even bigger and better!

Here's to next year.......

Kelly - the wife!!!!

Thourghly enjoyed the day....

That Tuscan Racer is something else :thumbsup: ... snaking up the run way tyres smoking WOW

Never been there before.... heard a lot of good things about you boys, new suspension set required (plus some ear bending from Derek Gardiner) .... heading your direction in the near future

[v41ley]

Thanks guys - Great day with a good line up of TIVs.
What did people think of that mental cerb with the great plate ?
I've got some pics on my mobile if anyone knows how I get them from there to here !
