This chap has been trialling this TVR V8S for about a year now, photos taken at last weeks Allen Trial, between Bristol and Bath. I do like the exhaust.

some good pictures.

The purchase and build of this car were quite well documented on the S Forum.

Anorak moment...It's not a "true" V8S, Duncan uprated it from its original 2.9 V6 (and made a few other minor mods) smile

That's awesome.

Over use of the rivets perhaps

Ken / Clarence Boddiger ( RIP ) the previous owner would be proud.
He always used to prefer his S to be thought of as a 'Go' car not a show car.

Speaking as an S owner, it's a lovely thing to behold. thumbup

Even if a bit dirrrty! biggrin

It is good to see some pictures of the S in action after following the posts re the work that was done on it. Excellent stuff.

Excellent, enjoyed some of the other trials footage as well. Haven't been to a car trial for at least 25 years....add it to the list for 2013!
