What a day......!
Discussion
Gorgeous sunny spring morning here in the south west. Not a cloud in the sky and only a hint of a frost on the ground. 
Only one option on a day like this. 06:45, get the V8S out, top down, wake all the neighbours and grin all the way to work.
Looking forward to the trip home now!
Who else is making the most of this fab Tiv weather?

Same here, fantastic weather, roof down and foot to the floor through the country lanes, arrived to work with a big smile!! I started to think of places to go at lunch as soon as I got to work and then which way to go home just after lunch, great open top motoring day!
Today looks the same, a bit foggy at the moment but came in the V8S as its supposed to be sunny later, bring on lunch.

I've also been for the lunchtime blast, at the request of a colleague and fellow motoring enthusiast! I think he was suitably impressed... especially by the noise!
Did notice though that some feathered fiend has peppered my bonnet with an unwelcome gift from above!
The lunchtime antics now mean I don't have enough fuel to get home.... oh well, the joys of TVR ownership.

Putb some "Meguiars Quik-Detailer Mist & Wipe" in the boot,failing that a bottle of fizzy water and shake well and blast it of
If nothing else spit on it the enzymes (sp) will break it down.
Do not just wipe it of a bird crap is usually very gritty
Mate of mine asked if I would give him a lift to pick up his car from the garage near where it broke down last week. Sun's out. OK.
Thing is I'm in Brighton and his car was in Chelmsford!
175 miles of big grinning!(and now sunburn).
What really made my day was most of the journey was at about 90ish, some at 80 and an occassional blast well above the ton (when the road was clear) and she returned just over 30mpg! Ridiculous having all that fun for so little cost.
Still smiling,
Pookie.

£350 to remove the old one, make up a new one and fit the new one.
£500 for the above and recover the targa panels in the same material.
That was AJ trimming in Bourne End. He reckoned on 2 days to the whole job, he apparently does quite a bit of TVR work. I thought the price quite reasonable.

I reckon I have to wait 25 years before even considering buying a Tiv
