I was filling up in the Shell garage in Crouch End and the garage next door had a Vixen in for repair (new engine i think), before i knew it wasn't for sale i asked if i could go for a test a test drive and having the Chim with me actually gave me some credebility for once!! But alas...no..

But I did have my camera with me and so I took a couple of piccies....

So does it belong to anyone on here??

First one I've actually seen in the flesh...very nice...it's now become my girlfriends dream car...I knew she'd catch the bug eventually!!

HAven't seen it but may have to stroll down for a look this evening. There are loads of TVRs round here. And some Ferraris too.

I've seen it in there a couple of times in the last couple of months so must be a reasonably local person, or does he need to keep having it repaired there!!!!

Nevin is that your Chimp on Ferme Park Road?

I've seen that one to. Looks nice! If you see a green N reg chim with loud chrome exhausts on the back driving round the area then it's me more than likely. I stay in Crouch end at a mates flat when i'm working in London.

Er, yes, except it's not there just now. It's in the bodyshop getting the front bumper fixed. Oops. £7ks worth of fibreglass work and respray.

Cross-referenced post in the Classic forum.

Haven't seen that car around in 5 years of Vixen ownership. (only ever seen 2 on the road in that time anyway, and one was on the way to Back Home ) The other one was owned by a bloke in Walthamstow who used to attend the Merry Fiddlers meetings, whose name escapes me, and I'm sure that's not his car.

Looks nice in the piccies though.

That's been there for at least a year. Probably belongs to the garage owner..

Fran from Travis has a red F355 parked outside his house in Weston Park. Look out for a yellow GT3 from Monday 1st....

theres one identical to that near me. my friend swears he will buy it and restore it one day, since it is dying in someones front garden by the look of it.
