Hello all.

Here we go first question as a new owner. Where do
you guys purchase your parts from. Being a Jaguar XJS owner I use the likes of SNG Barrett or David Manners for Jag parts. Any advice gratefully received.

Rob.

What do you mean "official" ?... they wouldn't pay the man , so no one is "official"

There are various published spreadsheets recording the origin of various parts on each model, contributed by owners over the years. A google search for (model) parts list will probably find them.

Arguably, 'Motaclan' are the official parts suppliers. TVR Parts/Racing Green sold all their stock to Motaclan ~3 years ago.
They (Motaclan) have done a deal of work sourcing previously nil stock items and getting them back on their shelves. A case in point is the much better windscreen supply....and the re-engineered door mounts for the Chim/Griff wing mirrors.
It does help that one of the Directors runs an S series!!!

That's not to say Racetech Direct and Powers Performance are behind the curve.

My understand was TVR Parts/Racing Green paid TVR Newco a license fee to be the "Official Supplier" , later RG were unwilling to pay or NEWCO terminated the arrangement and TVR Parts ceased and sold their parts to MOTOCLAN . Newco wanted a license fee from MOTOCLAN to become "official" and a MOTOCLAN representative told me they refused to pay .
The Three D Mucketeer "totally unofficial supplier" of TVR Doors Seals (Muckets) hehe
