Hello All,

Just signed up to the forum....

No TVR yet, saving up for a 350 probably. Wanted one for years (ever since I heard one start up outside a pub)

I don't like convertible cars though. Noisy (OK that doesn't make much difference with a wedge), impractical, cold, wet etc.....

I know the 280 can be got with a fixed roof but what about the 350's??


Tim.

But they sound so much better with the roof off. Better still when you floor them through a tunnel.

Get yourself up to the BBWF event at the end of the month and all you will see is Wedges, small ones, big ones, bigger ones, with roofs, without roofs.......

welcome yes you can get a 350i FHC but IIRC there were only 47 made as 2 seaters and i think something like 16 were bulit as 2+2's. Good luck with your search

There aren't that many left, were a few on eBay recently though.

You say you wanted a coupe as they're not ' impractical, cold, wet etc..... '

I'd have to disagree on that one

Excellent fun though. I use mine everyday to commute and ( touch wood ) it hasn't let me down ...... yet.

Load area can hold quite a bit too

cheers
