Excellent weather!!

Just had an excellent drive in the Tamora, roof off, through town and finally arrived at my destination which was...... The Shell garage!!! Had to have Optimax and the bonus is that the local Shell garage is also a BMW dealer. All the salesmen, mechanics etc and a few customers were breaking their necks to see the latest TVR

But by far the best bit was starting her up and setting off the alarm on the Jag at the pump behind and this thing is nowhere near as noisy as my old Cerb!!! Really pissed off the gut-barge Jag owner who was desperatley trying to turn the alarm off!!!

5 months away from owning a TVR is too long!!!

Had a run out with roof down and 18 month old daughter in baby seat... I do believe it made her giggle!!

Came out of Halfords to a small gang of 13 yr olds comparing my griff with an early viper that hand landed in the next space... "Why would you want one of the yank things when you could have a british thoroughbred.." I heard one lad say... a future PH maybe?

I'm using Optimax, too Flash, might as well gey the best out of the car, and it might be helping to protect the engine in the running in period. I had a nice blast yesterday, too (see Tamora section)

Flasher,

The multi story car park in Uxbridge is acusticly(sp) perfect for setting off car alarms - I set off about 4 in one go in my MG once.

It does upset the owners though for some reason
