After a lot of lurking and research I bought my first TVR in Jan. Having lived only a few miles from the factory I would quite often see cars speeding up and down the M55 and always hoped one day to own one.

The car is a 2004 with 20,000 miles on the clock. It has just been at the old factory for the past 7 weeks having the seats, door cards, carpets and tunnel re trimmed by D&C Trim. Whilst there Mike Vernon gave it a full service and Surface & Design sprayed the rear diffuser.

Just wanted to say thank-you to all the people who take the time to post - I have learnt a huge amount and enjoyed all the updates.

Below are a few pics

the quality of the retrim looks superb, not sure on the quilting though, sometimes i think it looks great other times not to sure. Definitely don't think it is a bad thing just not sure where i stand on it.

just added a couple of before shots. Still have the dash to do at some point - along with my 'personalised' glove box top.....

Looks great, saw Jasons Sag down at Str8six the other week which was also done at D&C and the quality was fantastic.

Looks a great job, I really like the quilting.

What sort of figure are we talking about for a similar job?

Very nice indeed, makes me want to get mine re-done!! If it's not a rude question, what sort of ballpark cost was involved?

Thanks Glenn. ballpark around 2k - but I did not have a full retrim, just what I needed for the moment - some parts of my interior were fine and were kept original. If you give them a call with a complete list of what you want doing I am sure they will give you a good price. Even better if you can make the trip to see them as there are so many things to choose when doing an interior.

Thanks! Although it looks like white leather it is actually a light grey - just the camera exposure that messes it up.
