There wasn't much footage was there. Far too much coverage of the Aston I thought - more TVR footage please

The Blue 400SE with the Pistonheads.com sticker (and Blue rollbar)is Mine.
I will be raising the invoice to Ted in the new year for advertising

I watched it last night - the car's looked and sounded good but would have sounded better if they were spaced out a bit - so you could hear each individually.

Don't think I agree with Clarkson - that the only reason to buy a TVR is for the noise.

Also spotted the back of Neil Hydes head - he was sitting in the 420 SEAC reving it !

Looks like Neil and Jeremy are both loosing a bit of hair

[Steve_T]

I think my 500 is just as loud as the SEAC, maybe a bit louder, on the fly past

[rev-erend]

Yes - I thought so too .. shame Neil has a 400 se system and not a proper SEAC system - not that I think mine is any louder at all

[Steve_T]

I must confess I'm a bit tempted by the Sports conversion trinity has, sounded fantastic when I saw him the other day.

[NHyde]

Right you lot !!!

To do list :

1. Get a copy of the DVD
2. Chase the vendor to see if he has finished my PROPER SEAC exhaust
3.Get name down for BBWF 2005
4. Order rug for head !!!

and 5

GET A JOB !

and watch out cos we're back !!


from Mr and MrsH in cold , damp wet , miserable Cheshire !!

[stainless_steve]

Welcome back

[rev-erend]

Neil / Karen - welcome back .. to cold / damp/ miserable blighty but hey - it's home and I'm sure you would not want to be anywhere else.

Hope you had a good time away and that everything was OK on your return

Don't be too tempted to drive the SEAC yet ... it's very slippery out there and a few TVR's are sliding off the roads..

Take care

[quote=rev-erend.. it's very slippery out there and a few TVR's are sliding off the roads..[/quote]
....although a nice loud exhaust does mask the sound of splintering bodywork quite nicely and the lack of leaves on the trees heightens the rasp! Just got to be a bit careful with the loud pedal.

[dickymint]

Welcome back Mr & Mrs Hyde and Happy New Year.
Now get your ideas/thoughts posted for BBWF 2005
PS your Clarkson DVD should be on your doormat along with all the bills you've probably accumalated on your absence........get onto Ralph Dodds if it aint arrived.

Yes, I booked my car in for the mod the day after I heard Trinity's new exhaust note
