Well anther 250 miles round trip to see yet anther excellent described chimera.
This was number 6 or 7 cant remember now,
Advertised with just 20k on the clock I thought it cant be a bad car, How wrong could that be.
All history tallied just didn't tally up with the cars condition.

Took the car for a drive to find the throttle was like a on and off switch and the engine missing like a missing thing.
It must be low on petrol or damp the owner said, I mean come on who tries to sell a 10k car with no petrol in it.
For them that's interested its the blue one on a well known auction site.
If anyone's intending to go have a look at it I,l give you a Honest description it maybe ideal for you just not me.

I don't want to go posting it straight away as people may think im just being bitter, I am a bit tbh anther day wasted.
The owner is a dealer and did seem a tidy enough chap just don't think he knows anything about Tvr,s.

Maybe I should start looking for a 911....

Im not on face book so I cant see it.
There a black 400 on the auction site at the moment with tvr plate up in North wales way.
The photos don't do it much justice but anyone on here know the car?

I cant see the car on there? Ideally I really would like power steering but I am torn whether to get one with or go for a 4.3.

There's a very nice looking 400 with a few extras in the classifieds now that seems to be ticking all the boxes that im going to have a look at later.
Its not cheap and for the same money I could be looking at a 450 but a lower spec.
Ive never driven a 450 and ideally would like one as they seem the best to get.
But this 400 is very nice indeed.
What to do?

I have a feeling it would be like driving around in a boxster always thinking/wishing it was a 911 lol
