Recently I read a quote somewhere done by Top Gear's Jeremy Clarkson, about TVR (I think it was about a Cerbera actually). Can somebody help me to that quote? I want to use it for my all new Dutch (and eventually English as well) TVR-site, wich I am starting up right now.

and as you will see, I already changed my nickname from TVR-man to TVRooom, just for clarity.

Sorry but I get Error 404. What quote did you have in mind? I have his book 'Hot 100 cars that make you go Phwoar)'here.

One quote was ""TVR CERBERA, SO FAST, IT CAN CREATE IT'S OWN WEATHER"

And that is the title on my Cerbera web site.

He also said: "This is the fastest thing this side of a Lambo Diablo".

and: "If this car could sing, it would be like Jarvis Cocker, old gravel voice himself"

From Perfomance Car 93 Griffith and Cobra..

'They're Loud, Punk-Rock Uncouth and who gives a damn?
You would take these cars out, only to hear the noise.
Buy either of them and your neighbours would buy a gun.'

(of TVRs in gerneral) 'Some cars are girly, but not this one; it's a man, and not a washboard-stomached male model either. This is a big, hulking bouncer with a neck like a birthday cake and a fondness for biting the heads off dogs.'

This time the boys from Blackpool have done the unthinkable - they've fitted wheels to a thunderstorm (Clarkson on the Speed 12)

and my fave

The girl next to the BMW driver is probably wearing an alice band, whereas the girl next to the TVR driver probably isnt wearing any knickers.

Also

The Z3M is quick, the Boxster quicker still but both get blitzed by the TVR Chimaera in its relentless pursuit to headbutt the horizon.
