For what its worth, besause of the history of the car, I would go for silver...I would be pretty certain the car would originally have had silver wheels....there must be some press/launch photo's of the car somewhere which would confirm this.
Yes indeedy, it is this one:

Yup, well done. If it were me I would def put silver spiders on the car.
It still isn't that car. The one in the pic on TVR100 is a mk 2.
One for the TVR nerds among us, but yes, it is that car. TVR photoshoped the mkII lights onto the mk I picture, rather than re-take new ones.

Let's be honest, they will look good whatever the colour of the wheels - it's like asking if a supermodel looks better in pink or red lipstick!

I purchased the plate from TVR-Mads, they took it off the other Tam before it was sold, which incidentally was used in the buying Tam guide in EVO smile

Cheers,

Well done on buying my car, it really is a fantastic beast, don't think I'll ever own anything as good ever again, take care of it, it's been well loved in its life even had the most expensive wax in the world applied to it while I owned it, missing it already !!

Get intouch and I'll come round and pick it up my number is 07929999151
