Well I travelled upto Cardiff today to look at my potential new car, the new Audi RS4 @ the Cardiff Audi Centre. Then there it was with its beefy front end, fat exhausts sticking out of the back and massive 19" wheels on the side, it looked mean, and if the looks wernt scary enough the price certainly was lol.

As I gazed at it snapping some photos with my phone, wondering if its perhaps my next car, I heard a roar and some back firing (the unmistakable TVR sound), i looked across the M4, coming up the pull off (eastbound) was a dark Blue TVR Cerbera, i only caught a glimpse of it, so im not sure what Cerb it was, but it sounded

i jumped back in my car and drove home thinking too my self "I really cant get rid of my Tuvra" and shortly followed by "Got too speed the repair people up and get the TVR Power silencers fitted ASAP."

My TVR is away for repairs after my little bump, so I havnt experienced it for a month or two now, seeing & hearing that Cerbera made me think God I love TVR's

Anyone off here, it was around 1 o'clock Junction? 31 i think (Cardiff Gate any way)

They just received the paint and they recon another 4 weeks cause they cant seem to be able to get their hands on a wheel.

Basically the car reacted strangley on the Fly over from the A465 over too Neath, it was when they layed the new Tarmac, as i come around the corner and touched the new tarmac the back end seemed to "jump" slightly which saw me heading for the wall, had a bit of tussle with her, managed too minimise the damage, ended up with slightly curbed front alloy, destroyed back alloy and a slight bump on the rear drivers side wing.

They have had it over 8 weeks now and at the minute, all they have done is repaired the minor damage too the fibre glass

Your cars looking after your accident, looks a real quality job, fingers crossed mine will be as good as that.

BTW I have knocked the Audi idea on the head dont know what i was thinking
