We're not as insecure and we don't need the help to be recognised like those other manufacturers. Don't need a colour, you just know it's a TVR thumbup



The answer though, is black......... or purple hehe

Loud pipes and a loud paint job ............ Perhaps yellow ............ A TVR should be irreverent and politically incorrect that's why I sold my 997 and bought one !!

What flavour Tiv are we talking about, the Cerb in OP's profile?
FWIW I'd say anything BUT green, especially if you're considering resale value. If it's a 'keeper' then go for it.
