Hi all, I've been searching tweb for posters relating to TVR, be it races, events or any sort of promo stuff. So far come up blank. Can anyone point me in the right direction. Trying to sort the mister out with a crimbo present. If not this he's going to end up with slippers, again, so any help would be appreciated, mostly by him!!

Motor show press packs are really good things to get hold of if you can. I've got several of them.

I got mine by going to shows. There was a shop called Pooks that had a stand and had loads of good quality brochures etc. They are still going and have a website. They have too much to list though so it would be worth phoning them up. They do have a shop you can go to as well.

Get a friendly photographer around whilst he's not there and get a pic of his car to turn into a poster?

I was a twentysomething 'yuppy' in those days, and managed to pay the 5% deposit out of two weeks pay.

Later made the mistake of getting married. rolleyes
