Caught a glimpse of this hiding behind armco under a bridge, acompanied by a recovery vehicle. M25 clockwise before J17 just after 10:30 - pretty sure it was this one.?..... hope its ok.....

That looks like PH member DonkeyApple's car.. Not many around but I'm sure his is that colour.

Amazed it's out and about this time of year.. Hope nothing serious.

If it was a Typhon it can 'only' be that car. It's for sale at RG so maybe it broke down on a test drive.....

But racing green engines are reliable so you can't point a Finger at that

That must be why mine lasted 6000 miles before needing a proper (Dom) rebuild.....

Calm down girls. It was just on its way home.

But this faggotry in certain TVR circles, bhing over products has depressingly reminded me of one of the reasons I put the car up for sale last year. It's behaviour far more suited to purveyors of lesser brands.

RG built me an engine far superior to anything I ever bought from TVR. And in the past, Dom has built me an RV8 far superior to other vendors.

So, in short, may I humbly suggest that all the little twerps engaged in their childish, womanly bhing over TVR service companies simply sell up and fk off to a brand that is more suitable for them.

Does that mean we might finally see it out and about sometime? Would be nice.
Looked great last time I was in RG.
The colour is a bit Marmite (as in love it or hate it), but I am very much in the loving it category.

Morning GB. Hope all is well.

Yes, it should be out and about sometime. It has essentially been in storage for two years and there are things that need doing. I've never run a Tiv on the roads between Sept-April but I think it sensible to use this a few times after being inside for so long.

As for the colour, I agree. I would never have chosen it. It makes me laugh when I see it as it not me in the slightest but I made a descision to keep it in its original colour.

Apparently it was the transporter that had needed to stop. The irony was not lost.

Excellent, we must sort out that article we keep talking about.

Hi David. Indeed. I'm only 4 years late on that project.
