My first TVR is in the garage tonight. Spent a few months looking but am delighted with my new toy.

My parents wandering what on earth I have bought now!


Happy days!

It was the one on ebay. Had written it off as it was on an no reserve auction, poor advert and pictures. Spoke to the owner and the garage that had done all the work and couldn't beleive how much had been done in the last 12 months. The owner under sold it in the advert so went to see it and snapped the owners hand off straight away before the auction ended.
Very happy! Just requires a bit of tidying on the interior and its good to go next spring.

Laughing at the parents just shaking their heads in despair "Oh where did we go wrong...?"
Enjoy it. Was on ebay I think - and has had a fair bit of work done IIRC - engine rebuild rings a bell?
"It's a bit noisy" was their comment!
It has just had a full engine rebuild and full respray.

Thanks to all for making me feel so welcome. Shame I have to wait for the summer to come round to enjoy it fully. I have taxed it all year so may find the odd bright cold afternoon for a drive out. Lots of little improvements for me to do over the winter. Better than watching "Eastenders"!

Wish it was me out for a drive in North Wales but sadly no, I was working. But sounds a nice idea for the spring!
