Flasher, Seeing the car with you by it throws the perspecive out, or is your watch bigger than the side lights. You could have someone's eye out with that thing you know hehe.

Yeah, I'd noticed that!

No wonder you picked Flasher as a 'handle'

Looks great Flasher. What's the verdict from the general public? I bet most people don't have the slightest clue what it is yet since there hasn't been that much publicity surrounding this new model.

Enviously.

Had a great day today too. Took the Missus out for the first time!!! Went to see benno and upstaged his baby's christening!!! The public reaction is amazing!! I've had blokes hanging their heads out of Golf's and kids trying desperetly to read the badge on the back to see what kind of TVR it is

The computer on the dash is brilliant it has about five different screens and tells you everything from oil temp to speed in KMH...

Great car and the best TVR I have owned to date.
One thing I have noticed is that everyone says it looks better in the flesh than in print.

Glad you all like my watch

I already love it on the prints so I suppose I'm in for a heart attack when I'll see one in the flesh
How many miles today, you lucky ba****d ?!

Saw Flasher today in the new car, all i can say is it looks way better in the flesh and the production ones look much better finished than the original prototypes & it sounds lovely.

I did get him a cracker though, as he left us..

>I shouted in a panic 'andy, andy, stop man, stop',

>The window came down, 'whats up' said a peturbed Flasher

>'its the back of your car' i said,

>'whats the matter with it' said a panic'd Andy,

>'I think you have run over a wheely bin and its sticking out the back',

> with that he said' $%^&**!!!' and departed.

Yeah benno,

your just pissed because your porker doesn't have a diffuser to stop it taking off

The dustbin thing was funny though mate...

Hi Guys,
Your killing me here !!
All this talk of your great cars and mines still sitting in the Factory. I took a quick look on Thursday and am very happy with the colour. It’s called "RED BULL", only the 3rd car TVR have ever done in this colour. It looks much better in the flesh than in the pictures. It changes from dark to light blue so much depending on how much light is on it. I've put a few pictures on the web at www.fotango.com/cgi-bin/public_gallery_item.cgi?index=0&id=112536&get_previous=1&key=
I just can't wait now, roll on the middle of March !!
Cheers,
Nick

Flasher/Andrew, what's full throttle like? I'm getting some miles up, but I'm still keeping to 4000revs until 500 miles - I need some time off work for the important things in life!! even 4000 revs gives effortless overtaking, what has been your experience further up the range?!!
