Having listened to a variety of tunes whilst driving my TVR, I thought it would be good to share some of my personal favourites (in a DJ nicey and smashy style!) and how they make me feel.

Oasis- Supersonic...(TVR gets driven with no regard for speed limits and Porsches always get raced whether they want to or not)

Jimi Hendrix- Driving South (Cruising mode, looking slick and casually smoking a fag using the low down torque because I am too cool to bother changing gear)

Theme from Bullitt- (Usually driving down some back alleys around town- slow down and then boot it up a hill..make sure you have the tight polar neck and blip the throttle while waiting to turn right..a classic)

Chris Rea- Road to Hell- (Stuck on the M25 going nowhere watching the temp guage and oil pressure like a hawk..while thinking about getting on the open raod again)

Perhaps I should not say too much otherwise the Government may waste more money having a Consultative Paper written about music and its effect on drivers and then we might have that taxed or made illegal..

Any contributors to this?

Changes frequently but at the moment:

For prowling round town scaring the natives
Deep Purple - Perfect Strangers

For a bit of open road top down
Deep Purple - Highway Star

You actually listen to music whilst driving a TVR?

Picks jaw up off the floor.

Paradise City - Guns & Roses ... about the only thing I can hear over the exhaust!

Yello - The Race

though I'll give you Guns n Roses

and yes, I listen to music, lets face it, the exhaust doesn't sound particularly exciting on long motorway journeys from in the cabin... 20 foot behind it maybe.

I don't believe I listened to much music during Dawn Raid however

I heard that myself.. wonderful weather, the smell of burning rubber and the noise of tvrs wanging it.. who needs music. :-)

When I got the tuscan 2 months ago I had grand plans for stereo installation. 2 months later I have barely realised there is a stereo in there. I forget how to switch it on.

The sound of my engine is music enough for me
Besides i can't hear the stereo with the engine running
