Aha, I think Ive got a bone to pick with you! Imagine making a TVR owner wait on a steep hill on his handbrake! Good job I wasnt in a Cerbie really
Im presuming you were in the White County


I can empathise with that as the handbrake in the CT is crap too. Sorry!


Dont suppose you hire the VT out do you? A m8 at work has been trying like buggery to get hold of a white CT to hire for a wedding!


I can imagine it's difficult as there aren't too many of them around, and most of the owners of these cars are quite precious about them; I certainly am about mine. I haven't even let my best friend have a go in the driving seat when she asked if she could have a go. It may sound harsh, but there is no way I would consider letting a complete stranger have the keys.

That's fair enough. I havent even let dad or bro drive the 'gris and they've been knocking around sports cars as long as I have +30 yrs in dad's case!

Thats harsh. Its the only RHD one ever made. I hope someone repairs it nice and good, but CAT C is a pretty bad write off.

Anyone know what happened?

New(ish) to the site, so missed this event, anyone know if there will be another one run later in the year, or is it an annual event?
