car will be 3 years old on April 1st!!!! Sorry to say the engine was rebuilt twice early on (the usual with the early ones- valve gear) but since then no problems. It would appear that there is nothing wrong with the engine design and all the early troubles were down to a bad batch of components. I'm expecting to run this one for another year and then change for another or maybe a Tamora, not sure yet.
As a matter of interest I had 80k on my last TVR ( 4.0 Chimaera) and it gave less trouble than the Mercedes I had before that. The only thing I can suggest is "use the damn thing" they don't like posing around town and as I do a return trip most days of 50 miles mostly out of town mine gets properly warmed up regularly.
