I dont want to turn this into a 'i'd buy mine, its the best' forum. I also hope i'm not breaking any rules, but I found myself last night having a good look on PistonHeads and ebay at the current TVR's for sale. I'm not currently in the market for a second TVR or a change, but I couldn't help thinking that if I was, which one out of the current bunch would I be interested in? The current LS Griff on ebay looks amazing to me and that gets my vote! RT racing in Sheffield were doing one on a Chimaera when I had the Griff serviced over Christmas and it just made me want one. How about you guys.......? Apologies in advance if i'm breaking any posting rules by asking this!

The Red Cerb, followed by the LS Griff, followed by the Carisma Cerb.

I know exactly which red cerb you mean even without the link! I expect that we have all looked at so many TVR adverts over the years that you develop a sudden appreciation for a nice desirable car at a reasonable market value across the range of models. It's almost as if you look at the car, the colour, the paintwork, the model, the year, the service history, mileage, restorations done and a figure subconsciously pops into your head.

Definitely would be the LS Griff if I had not promised the OH a new kitchen.

First TVR to cut my teeth into, you bethca, even though the A Flux competition towards it would help, there's no way I can get one/or seem to be looking for one, until the kitchen is done.

That plate was never on that car (in a legal sense), it is just A.C. Roney using my mates ex T2S to advertise the plate as well as the car.

Unfortunitly they would have to knock off a bit more than 2k before I could afford it and then I would have to build another garage as I wouldn't want to get rid my chim, idea now just got to find the right lottery numbers.
