Scanned these this morning. Here's ours somewhere in Surrey in Spring 1998, a couple of months after buying it.



Outside my mother's house in East London, Winter '98

Then on the Laon Historique in 2002 when the clutch went in the middle of nowhere. We like the fact the breakdown lorry matched the TVR colours. coolhehe

are you sure? the pictures were I found them said griffith 400, of course that does not have to say so much,
but a Tuscan? I thought those had mostly other side airvents? more like>

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TVR_Tuscan_%281967%29

what does the UK DVLA? say about the plate? I don't have such info (only Dutch RDW)
I am very sure..Some owners would like everyone else to think 1965 Griffith 400 But it was re-built by the factory in 1967 as a Tuscan V8 after Colin Skeaping wrote it off previously and decided he wanted the more modern car.…..Its a case of some conveniently re-writing history for the Fia. Some bits of it may well have been a Griff 400 once upon a time!!

Tuscans and Tuscan LWB's remember!
a few days ago I was looking at some pictures in a TVR book, and I thought...hm, I remember that plate biggrin
its that strange TVR, not a Griffith 400 (although some looks but in say UK they named it also 200 with 400 looks?) it was a Brittish Griffith 200 and was red
so it seems? when I look at the picture and the writing. 200-003 of-course later rebuild or something.
Don't look to much at the poor picture, I was in bed and made it with the phone biggrin
I thought I should share, its in the book "the Griffith years"
