Anyone know why in this weeks Autocar 'Britain's best driver's car' cover story, TVR failed to get one car in the
top crop.

Surely a T350/Tuscan S should be up there mixing it with
the likes of lotus and Noble,

...and a Peugeot 407 se 2.2 ?

Beats the sh1t out of me!

Why don't you write (or e-mail) to the Letters dept. and ask.

I was equally surprised and disappointed.

Emailed Stuart Forrest at Autocar to get an answer:

"Probably because they didn't make a car available. We had the T350c at last
years event, and a typhon wasn't able to come along - we won't have the same
car twice (with the exception of the MX-5, because it won last year)."


'typhon wasn't able to come along'???

Very big missed opportunity, think it might have just pipped the 407.

I think he means get on to Autocar and complain!

Write in to the 'Letters' page and get your disappointment published.
