Hi all, been reading the forums for some time and I've finaly taken the plunge into TVR ownwership. I bought a 1991 S3 (silver/blue/grey, not sure what colour it is) from Jon Waggitt at Boroughbridge last week . I got bored of my MGF (wanted a Griff for as long as I can remember but couldn't afford one). Very pleased with the S3, its great to drive and I've only bottomed out 4 times this weekend!.

Welcome to the mad house

Glad your enjoying the car! - you'll get used to the bottoming out, and quickly find ways around it happening!

I think the problem is a combination of cp roads and over-enthusiasm with the loud pedal

- know how you feel. This is getting to be a tradition

Oh, I'm the other one waiting for him to find an S - although, fear not, only a humble V6 one
