there is a wee feature on TVR ownership in this months top gear mag - written by owners club

interesting in a "buy them they are actually good" way and " although the firm has gone there are loads of dealer types" so what are you waiting for...


Have a nosey in Smiths at the weekend!!

I know Mandy wrote some of the piece, so I'd guess the rest was done by a 'staff' journo?

I didn't agree with the bit about them smelling of glue, you'd be hard pressed to find one smelling of glue these days as they've not built for over three years.

I certainly agree that there are many bargains to be had and I think this will get better.

Smelling of glue....what utter crap.

Leather, maybe.

They have simply sold out to the 'oooh isn't it easy to take the piss out of something' brigade.

Some find it entertaining. rolleyes

TG has always had a TVR in the opening credits for ten years or more.

At the moment yes, I think certain TVRs will start to get more expensive as time goes by

Mine did when it was new and as they have new ones on the show I would say that is correct.....

Yes, and my BMW smelt of 'chemicals' and plastic...like the majority of new cars.
