Mi Matt, always was something that puzzled me a bit about your car but its taken me 2 years and several sightings to put my finger on it now you've posted that photo !

I think you've said its a Red Rose but its badged as an S with the additional front/rear spoiler. Can't be an S due the horizontal rear lights. Did a previous owner add the spoliers and badging ?

About time we had another Surrey Hills run rotate

Correct!it's a fake! I wouldn't change the badge but very early on in its life it had the front splitter, rear spoiler and the badge put on. I was going to change it but somehow I've just got used to it with that badge on. It is a red rose, it's got the official black felt pen on the engine to prove it :-D

We are well overdue a blast!

Count me in for a Surrey Hils blast, it's long overdue and I'm feeling very guilty that my Tuscan hasn't been out much so far this summer.

Where did you get the union jack tvr badge from? Ive been looking for one in vein.

Surry hills meet could be good. Newlands corner would be a good spot.

Citroen Mango for me. As far as I know it is the only one in this colour and somehow seems part of its personality so I would never change it. F1 Green would be my choice otherwise.

Occasionally meet a Saxo in the same colour which which is a bit of laugh, but they will be rusted away to nothing in the next couple of years laugh

ETA: Credit to Sevenman for the pic.

Renault's flame red and liquid yellow look great and should work well on a TVR.

This post was a pleasant surprise to see... that car is mine now!

Do you have any more photos of it from over the years? I'm too busy driving it to take any, nor am I any good with a camera biggrin
