I have just received a call from TVR and they are sending a guy over to Spain to service my Tuscan S! I thought you had to own a Maclaren to get that sort of treatment!

I think the question needs to be, how much will it cost?
I'd be suprised if TVR will send somebody out for free, otherwise I'll give them a call and they can come and work on my car while it's in the office car park

Opps...that's my brain working quicker than my dodgy typing.

I don't expect it to be cheap for a minute but I am sure it's cheaper than driving the car back to the UK in mid winter!

For your info the "volunteer" is Mr. Heath Briggs and he shall be very well looked after (Spanish Hospitality).

Dont mean to through a spanner in your engine Phill but Heath Briggs is a pseudonym. He actually comes from Barcelona and knows nothing

Ahhh. "TVR" for SERVICE!

The one I rather like comes from the TVR Chimaera manual:

"bestows the vehicle with unusually effective in-gear performance"

a euphemism for

"Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii"

Not 'Pretty Boy' Briggsy again? I thought we'd seen the last of that cowboy, pretending to be a TVR service agent, preying on ex-pat Brits....

clearly not. Hey Simpo, remember that story about Briggsy and Big Dave doing their mechanics course whilst doing porridge. Must have been for their next scam.
