We had a great day at Bruntingthorpe in June doing the photoshoot for the article. Bit of a shame the TVRs missed out to the Porkers for the main cover pic frown Originally it was going to be a Tiv special issue to tie in with 'TVR to start production news' but as that came to nothing I think it got scaled back to a 16 page article. It's still good though...

Shame that the text is full of some mistakes, though.

Even me as a German noticed that instantly.

Nice pics anyway, at least you had a day of fun, hadn´t you?

I went along as second shooter so I've lots of pics which I couldn't share until now. I'll get them up next week (currently abroad in the sun with Pink and macy gray in the same hotel)

Great pictures Dave. I think Jon L from Sprint may be looking for some more pics for an article about the photoshoot for Sprint. I'm sure he'd be interested. smile

I may be slightly biased because my car was at Bruntingthorpe but those are excellent photos of all the cars, especially mine.
