I hear S02's are not too easy to get hold of.
Having just had a set fitted, I thought I'd share the info
Company called M&J tyres in Twickenham number is 02082969136, ask for Gavin.

Got the this beauty last week
( www.pistonheads.com/ads/detail.asp?i=7107&sc=PSJ1&s=2 )

Enjoyed weekend with my new toy - managed to rack up 1000miles on a trip to Sheffield & Essex.
What a car - it doesn't get much better than this.

No - never had a TVR before, she's a dream to drive, I'm a totally converted Lotus driver, albeit a stack more respect for this beast is warranted.

It's nearly bitten me once, back end seemed quite eager to swop places with the stern.
Was not expecting so much attention either (love watching those passenger windows roll down when you burble up to traffic lights) - mind you it's my own fault for choosing that colour!

Haven't been this chuffed since I got scalextrix when I was eight.

Really looking forward to Bruntingthorpe - do you need any type of deposit?

Mike E - Impeccable taste sir! - just noticed his original plate on the beast, worth a few bob. Silver / pink, must admit haven't seen that mix.

Gary F - I noticed the interest in them - I have to be honest and say I'd agree with Brandon (previous owner) and would rather have the extra inch or so in visibility, they just seem to get in the way

I suppose driving into a blinding sunset they would come in to there own, but generally a decent pair of shades would suffice - if I didn't end up with dodgy screw holes in the frame I'd say have mine!

I'll try and post a pic tomorrow

Damon - Just checked them - they are 225/35 ZR 18 on the front and 255/35 ZR 18 on the back - with the name Potenza on both. - Hope this helps.
