i am starting to like it, the only real problem i have with it now is all the bodywork bangs and rattles over bumps, should be a nice car when completely sorted, the only thing is i am sure at some point i will have to lift the body and attend to the chassis (just like everyone else by the sound of it).

but all in all that tvr grin is appearing!!!biggrin

I have but I like listening to the Beach Boys in the sunshine. I close my eyes and I could be driving a mustang through California.

Regardless of the blasphemy, i'm more worried about him doing 70mph, with his eyes closed and his hearing seriously impared! (The Beach boys!)

I spent a week listening to the exhaust before trying to decide on an all important first CD to play. I settled for Bad Company followed by Free at full volume. I bottomed out on a country road and one of the rear speakers fell out biggrin

Loving the whole experience, let's hope we get a long dry spell soon....

This weekend is pants, let's face it. I'd like to emigrate to an English speaking country where it's warmer, but none of them let TVRs in do they. I know somebody with an S3 and a Chimaera moving to New Zealand and turns out now he won't be able to drive them on the roads, they're going to be on show or something like that. Shame. That's a good thing about Britain, they have TVRs. Shame about the weather.
