I wonder how loud the pops and bangs will be when that NoS mixture overruns into the exhaust... it will probably blow half the exhaust off

I do believe that car is the most hideous mutation of one of the most beautiful cars ever produced. May it go up in flames.

Come on Ted. Each to their own. It might not be to our tastes, but the guy has obviously spent a lot of time and money making the car just how he wants it.

When I look at some of the Cerberas aroud on the road, not properly maintained, and their owners bleating on about how they keep on breaking down. That's what makes me

If you look at Christof's car, he's done a lot of Max Power stylee things to it, but because we use our subjective judgement to call it "tasteful", it's ok.

Christof was inspired by racing Cerberas and exercised restraint. This is the epitomy of bolt on badness.

Why is there a TV in the headlining and apprently there are 3 more screens somewhere? And a couple of cameras? Why!
I hope he's strengthened the boot hinges to cope with that rear spoiler

Personally. I think you are all close minded bigots!!
I have fitted nos to many tvrs, some of the owners include mechanics from reputable TVR dealers. And they loved it. Me myself am not a "maxie p" and just enjoy making cars a shitload quicker than they should be! And in some reference to the "damage" that nos can do, i will set the record straight:- Nos fitted correctly, and correctly used will cause NO damage to the engine, it will infact reduce detonation, and reduce the running temperature of the engine. And before any of you say, "well those maxie p boys will not use it properly", consider this, why would they want to blow up a 50 grand car?? I just think you should be a little more open minded!

But what about the extra weight this guy has added, Nitros on a standard car would be fine, but all the extra power is wasted draging along the contents of Currys

Exactly my point. The guy has done things to his car to "improve" it in his eyes. Whether it's your choice or not, it's his car.

I did all sorts of things to my car to improve it. I put decent suspension on it. I put better brakes on it. I put sat nav in it (and yes, it also had TV). I put 18" wheels on it (as a lot of you lot have also done).

Taste is subjective. Does this guy moan to his mates about all of the bog standard cars he sees driving round? Does he say "I can't believe it. They spend 50 grand on a car, but won't spend another few making it into the sort of car that it could be!" Maybe he does.

I think raceboy hit the nail on the head TVR's are driving machines light and fast with driving enjoyment top of the list not laden with gagets and other crap. I.E. what they claim with John smiths beer.....

NOS on a otherwise standard TVR
