Is your car a star?

[simonwedge]

I bought a book from Amazon 'TVR Performance Portfolio 1986 -1994' which is a collection of reprints of period road tests. The following cars are featured - wonderered if any of them are still around?

D993PRN - 350i
C257FRN - 350i
TVR100 - 390SE
E319EEO - 350SX
E320EEO - 420SEAC
D435VFR - 350i (no roadtest - just picture)
F913HEO - 350SX
TVR355X - 350SX
A2BHM - 400SE
B470BCK - 350i
F646NLM - 350i
D668YLP - 420SEAC (no roadtest - just picture)

TVR100 was owned by the factory and has appeared on quite a few cars over the years...

Some of the cars may have had number changes over the years so may not be possible to trace all of them.

Sounds like an interesting book.

My 350i has been in two magazine articles now, once in about 1990 and one a few years ago.

I've called my car a lot of things, I don't recall Star being one of them.

During my attic clear out and bring instructed to get rid of all those magazines from the attic, from her indoors. I came across all my old car mags from the 80's and early 90's, with some of the cars you mentioned. 350SX and 390SE and 420SEAC in them.. So i've fired them on ebay, you never know an owner might want a roadtest of there car.

I aint binning them, i'd rather they went to a good home..


I hate it when her indoors insists "they're going in the bin..."

Pah..

check out
simboy1973 on ebay and have a look... The funds will just end up being ploughed back into my 390SE...

My car was a centrefold... 'Sprint' mag, Sept. '99. Third place in the 'Back Home' photo competition. It wore a different reg. number then.
