Excuse the state of the car, it's in need of a good clean

Excellent choice. They look "right" on the car.

Yep, totally agree with the above, looks brilliant. TVR may not have got everything right but the OZ slots are still the best looking option on this car.
They look great diamond cut, I sincerely hope they stay looking like that. Like Glen I gave up with mine and had them powder coated (with the original black details as well) and now they are 'wipe clean'. But in fairness both Glen and I keep our cars outside so the wheels probably do need a bit more protection.

Love the fact you have a special sofa and viewing area for your TVR, nice idea.
Also notice you keep a wheel and tyre in there for the added effect - maybe get that rubber smell. Polishing up the Slots in comfort and style biggrin

Thanks all, they've certainly been given the thumbs up smile

With the car living in a garage, only being used when dry, and a thousand miles a year I'm hoping the diamond finish will last... maybe I'll have to taken them back off in Winter and return them to the TVR viewing lounge biglaugh

Ha ha ha, yes when we drew the plans up I convinced the wife we needed floor to ceiling glass for "maximum daylight purposes" and it just so happens that I can now roll the S out of the garage, fire up the kettle and sit there with a brew coffee

Well what a difference! I have to put it down to the new tyres and more generous sidewall on the 205/60/15's. Took it for a first good drive today since putting the slots on and it rides much better and the handling is alive! Can't quite believe the difference, like I say can only assume it's mostly down to the new rubber. Either way very happy with the feel and the look :-)

Here was the view from the TVR Lounge cool

Who needs pictures hanging on a wall when you have a view like that, very nice indeed.

you need to ask your neighbour to put his car in his garage - tell him it spoils your view biggrin
