That's a nice looking S you have bought there Richard however I have to say it's not a patch on your first S3 (H397PYG) but maybe I am biased considering it was my pride & joy for a number of years after I bought it from you - Me and my old Dad still talk about our big day out when we flew over to Ireland, got looked after by you and the family, bought the TIV, got a Ferry to Scotland (pulled by customs on an the way back - held for over an hour while they verified my purchase) & then took a great drive down to Newcastle via the scenic routes... Sadly I sold it on a few years later to one of our North East TVRCC members who then sold it on to a guy down South - The current owner although not a PH member still keeps in touch with me & you will be glad to know it is in good hands.

Graham the s3 you bought from me all those years ago was a very nice S3 and I've missed it ever since. It was my first TVR and with that has a special place even more so for the time and effort I put into rebuilding it.

Its a car I would love to own again some day if you ever here of it coming up for sale again please let me know.


So have you still got the 400 chimaera?

I will certainly let you know if it comes up for sale Richard , yes I still have the 400 chimaera, I took it on an epic road trip last year through France, Italy & Switzerland it never missed a beat the whole trip........ I still very much miss the S though, although it wasn't my first TVR I did get to meet a lot of really great people because of it through the forum.
