Guys, I've owned a Griff for years (and a wedge) but now my other half lusting after a 350T - we're looking at one tomorrow but I know rock all about these straight six cars and could do with some help. I live in South Wales, the car we're looking at is at Shmoo in Devon. We're both very impulsive and tend to buy the first thing we see! Any tips/hints much appreciated. Thanks, Steve

Thanks. The fuel issue seems a bit of a faff, and why it wasn't fixed by the factory I have no idea! Personally a nice monza style filler cap would look alright but I assume might be very difficult to modify? Has anyone done such a mod?

Hi Michael I am in Wick and make regular trips to Barry on my motorbike! I'm always torn between the bike and TVR when the sun makes an appearance..Andrea is also a biker and the 350 appeals to her I think as it sounds very similar to her GSXR750 which I heard has links to the six engine in its design?

Anyway thanks for the comments, and a C may well be an option to the T , we just need to have a proper look at both. We are going to shmoo tonight to see the T (also spectra flair silver which has to be one of the nicest colours of any TVR I've seen)

Big thumbs up to Ross at Shmoo who has been very helpful and accommodating with our requests to try various cars, and when a problem was identified on the Cerbera after delivery he sorted it promptly. In my view his stock is high quality and the service is very good and would therefore recommend him. It's nice when that happens... smile steve
