.....and if someone has an early 1992 Griffith they would consider selling so I can legally import it to the USA in 2017, then get in touch..... just saying....
I suspect there may be a few Griff's heading over to the States on a one way ticket making the remaining UK Griff's even rarer. Anybody considering selling their P&J to the American market?JT

Yes, I am set on a Griffith. I recently drove a friends restored '70 Corvette big block 427 convertible with a manual gearbox. Not impressed. Sure it was powerful but felt really poorly made. No offence. I've been in the US 12 years now and just can't get into the American car scene. I'm a sucker for a trad Brit wood and leather interior. This is kind of hijacking the thread a bit. But back to the earliest Griffith, it seems registration date will have to the benchmark as actual date of manufacture records don't appear to exist. I'd bet most early Griffiths were registered within weeks of being built due to early high demand.
I seem to be in a plastic fantastic phase with my cars, owning a Daimler SP250, Reliant Scimitar and Lotus Turbo Esprit so a Griffith seems fitting.

I saw that one and got in touch with the seller. When I asked about getting an independent inspection (because I am in the US) he wasn't keen on the idea. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TVR-GRIFFITH-400-PRE-CAT...
