Mike, why the anti VBH sentiment - haven't seen UK TV for 6 yrs so has she turned strange ?
The best bit of the TVR 50 yr Top Gear vid was VBH in a 450SE !

I'm with you on this Bob, let's get her to BBWF to see her in the flesh. The seat belt was doing a fine job with her bodywork in last nights clip

Well done Gav, great to see the white beast on TV

VBH gets a good score in my book. Anyone who can broadside the Tuscan2 while staying that close to the Sagaris isn't all bad.

Good news - both presenters obviously loved the cars
Bad news - both presenters had a kit of parts in their hands at the end of the show (OK, only 1 bit in VBH's case)

WHY can't TVR get their build quality right. You would have thought that the cars offered for this TVR appearance would have been triple-checked to ensure this kind of mistake didn't happen. I still have a smug Porsche driver next to me in the office who mutters "TVR reliability ... what reliability ?" whenever I compare a TVR to anything else.

What you have downloaded so far is a "link" that will let you download the actual Torrent file. Its a "peer to peer" sharing thingy. You need some torrent software. Do a search for free torrent software.

I wonder if they used a screw driver - prise off a few bits to spice up the old TVR's fall apart argument..
