Does anybody on here own this car?
About 10 years ago, I used to own a TVR S2, reg no F 918 PRK. It was Moonraker black metallic with a grey half leather interior. I did about 28k miles in it in 2 years, including a trip to Venice and back from Aberdeen. It was a great car and I was very sad to see it go.
Just wondering where it is now?

I am pretty sure that reg rings a bell, the owner will be along shortly I am sure....?

That number plate sounds very familier, I am sure it was up for sale about 1 1/2 years ago, probably on PH, just the colour combination I was looking for.

There was one at RT Racing in Sheffield, same colour combination but it had electrical problems so I gave up after months of trying to buy it.

Happy with the one I have now though

Hi
I now own this car for my sins, it fair gets about, I live 1/2 way between Aberdeen and Inverness. I bought it from the south of York. Imagine my surprise when I got it here with history and that it had spent most of its life up here!
Anyway its pretty tatty at the moment but will be subject to some ongoing TLC.

Hi Abercoms,
The guy I sold it to in Aberdeen did not look after it, I saw it, and him, a year after I sold it and it was a right mess, he told me that the head gasket went on it. Glad to hear it is back in Scotland again, have you met up with the N.E.Scotland TVR club yet? They are a good bunch and some of them will rebember the car.
I had it as an only car for about 2 years and I only sold it because I needed a car my wife could drive. I'm hoping to get a V8S or a Griff in the near future, it will be good to have a TVR again.
Cheers
Robert.

Really ? Where abouts ? I went to school in Lossiemouth & my parents are still up there. The A96 was so much quicker when you have the acceleration to overtake the car trains !

Hi All
I live in Buckie, the A96 I avoid like the plague, it was OK in my Subaru's, but prefer the back roads. Suspect the Tiv may be too low for that road!

It looks like the engine had a full rebuild in around 97 in Elgin (Just heard from another owner up there) so its a small world!

Hi guys,

Good to see some other NE scottish guys on PH. I live in Brechin, about 40 miles south of Aberdeen. Any one here attend the NE SCottish TVRCC meets?
