I am off to the Black Forest Sunday in the Griff, really looking forward to it, roads and scenery look great, stopping over night in Luxembourg and meeting a few fellow TVR owners who live there, checked all the fluids, tyre pressures, treated her to a new number plate as well, just need to get her all shiny as there are a few Fezzas and Morgans on the trip too so she has got to look her best, could do with a front end re-spray after I let my son drive it full of stone chips from a newly gritted road he drove down 6 inches behind another car

Car looks fantastic.
Have a great trip, the Black Forest is fantastic, we have had a couple of S Eurotours go through there. Great driving roads and plenty of wide open corners, so you can see what is coming the other way.
But keep it a secret.
Thanks, its has just had the engine rebuilt and got an ACT Triple Plenum so it is quite quick Have a great trip, the Black Forest is fantastic, we have had a couple of S Eurotours go through there. Great driving roads and plenty of wide open corners, so you can see what is coming the other way.

Hi Gary
Looks like you had a lovely break and the weather - in the pictures at least - played fair.
I'm really just keeping the ol' Griff in good working order, trying to refresh a few bits of trim that are a bit tired but keeping it as original as possible.
It's been very reliable overall although it has refused to start on a couple of occasions : once had to get the rescue people out for a dead battery and once re-started OK when it had cooled down a bit(!). It's at Dans garage at the moment for service and MOT but of course there were a couple of other bits which needed sorting (both front top mounts) and a broken rear ARB bracket that have helped to keep the bill above my expectations...
Look forward to catching up with you sometime soon.
All the best
