Favourite spot so far this year...

Alfa Guilia Sprint crossing Leeds ring road onto Spen lane last week (could've been Thursday). Almost crashed craning my neck to look at it. Looked very tidy, the guy driving it looked well chuffed with himself

Rare to see a TVR these days but they seem to be cropping up. RPS plated purple Cerbera parked in the car park on Whitehall Road on the walk in today.

Lots of trouble usually serious

How many Lotus were at the Newby show on Sunday and how many TVR?

To be fair, there was a Chim broke down to the side of the entrance road, with a puddle of coolant not far away. tongue out

To be fair, the Lotuses were probably off having a decent blast or on a trackday whilst the Tivs were being polished incessantly at Newby if my decade of swapping between is anything to go by.

Pair of light blue TVRs on Sheffield Parkway this morning, convertible chasing a hard top. Didn't quite see which models they were though.

Yep it works on most cars. Fix or repair daily being another good one.

Lots of trouble usually serious isn't really relevant these days though is it. I currently have just over a year of ownership and two track days; no issues yet! TVR always have and always will be unreliable. Oh well.
