great pictures.

thanks a lot, René!

Here is another photo from Zandvoort circuit in 1995, showing the team with friends around Serge van Havres and my Griffith supported by Chris Schirle/DG Motorsport. Thanks to the generous hospitality of the nevertheless very successful Serge van Havre the following years we had many unforgettable events together as a team, competing in the Europaen FIA Championship for historic GTs and other series.

Even my very first event, an endurance race at Snetterton in October 1993, was fortunately supported by Chris Schirle because I was a bloody beginner and was in need of a lot of advise. Behind the steering wheel sat the great Gerry Marshall, who should start this race.

Why is it every time I come back to this thread I end up wanting to ditch the Tuscan for a Grantura.....? that grey car with brass spinners is beautiful

Just looking in the Classics section and there are some Stamford University picture files linked which includes some pictures of the US spec 2500M, link here :- https://revslib.stanford.edu/?q=TVR&utf8=%E2%9...

Yes the thread is fantastic and yes a lot is out there on the net somewhere but pulling it all together here makes even those of us with older cars appreciate what we are lucky enough to have.
I love the later Tuscan but would i swop my 60s Tuscan for one

I think I was at this race - I have photos somewhere of the front brake disks glowing red/ orange as Gerry took the chicane.
