I guess one day it had to happen and the team at Car SOS have taken on an early TVR for the latest series that’s now in its second week on National Geographic Channel.

Restoring a total basket case to back on the road in 12 weeks is no mean feat.

TheTVR episode I believe is no 8 but not confirmed but a great series to watch with an added bonus of a TVR being restored

They turn out great restorations but that Tim guy irritates me.

I haven't seen the episode yet but from the pictures here and the front drum brakes it would have to be an MK2. wink

It May well be however when I saw the car before they started and during the build I was still unsure.
The car had interesting history and was a light weight and had been raced a lot of modifications had been done historically on the running gear so may have been altered from new
Once the show airs I can share pictures

OK , guys am having trouble locating this series 12 on any of my options. I have National Geographic on Disney + but it only has the series 1 to 10 available; I have tried Netflix etc. where am I going wrong.
Thanks.

OK, thanks, I do not actually have Sky as such and can only reach it via a on now streaming App, I will probably have to wait for it to turn up on Channel 4 or similar.

Is its episode 7 or 8 going off the 1st 3 it will likely air 18th or 25th April. As others have said its aired on the National Geographic channel.

I've seen a TVR in the background on previous episodes I'm not sure if it's thisnone though.

Great great show, but I hate the needless dramatisation.

Sky only give access to programmes a week ahead, will have to wait until near showtime, ie first of March.

A long time to wait, impatiently

It's a good show but all the messing about getting things free for a bet etc is just stupid and actually really annoying. I usually avoid it or watch with no sound!

Yup, agree that is why I record it and watch it later with finger on FF.

Think he does it deliberately knowing he gets viewers complaining, like on here, I know I am one!
