That really is a stunner! A hybrid presumably as it seems to have some M series bits under the bonnet. I've never seen body coloured Webers before. I've often wondered how such a shine is achieved on inner wings. Also, no windscreen wipers - a dry state car perhaps? The purple M gets my vote too.

Rene,

My hat's off to you! I thought I had a lot of TVR images saved to my hard drive, but your collection absolutely dwarfs mine.

Best,
B.

Very True Bernard maybe Rene could do the job of TVR archivist for the TVRCC if Richard decides to step down at some point especially as he does not have a TVR to maintain hence the time to keep the records up to date wink

.. mine as well. Chapeau Rene!
So I´m going to post photos from my own car. "Early TVR Pictures" from yesterday – the 12th October 2014 – a real "sun"day. A brilliant opportunity for a short trip to a TVR mate in Hamburg. Regards A.

Thanks, and I guess your right, not having a TVR must save me a lot of spare time laugh

A really nice/great looking Grantura you have Arnfried.

Very Pretty before its diet of steroids…Lawrence Bailey used to pedal this car very quickly….Still had its single circuit brakes from memory which is probably why it ended up being comprehensively re-built…I think Nigel Used to play with this one as well..

Great looking car but can't help feeling that the wheels just look all wrong?

Its fabulous…Trouble today is that 14 and 15inch wheels are getting harder and harder to find performance rubber for… The FH type wheel pattern has been retained so for me the resto-mod look it has looks fantastic.
I always felt the wheels on M series cars were too conservative The webasto needs vinyl paint ;-)

Interesting to see the variations on original OE spec Dash in the various Giffiths and the OE Air Plane side vents very rare
