Big thanks to TVR

[venom]

How do you get invited along to something like that? It's not even been 4 whole days with my car off the road and I'm feeling empty already.

Roll on the weekend when I can start making her good again.

Did anyone drive the Sagaris?

My invite came with my TVR Christmas card. Couldn't make it though

Just got back too. I was a good morning out. Was very interesting to have a chat to Ben Samuelson about the Sagaris - just a pity they wouldn’t let anybody drive it!!

[Supersonic]

Anyone take their camera?

[PetrolTed]

We've been sent some pics which should appear tomorrow (if PHers don't beat us to it!).

This Ricer had a bloody good time- thankyou TVR.

Good pie.

[CiderwithCerbie]

Funnily enough they didn't invite me!!!!

Did anyone get any REAL information about what's going on in Blackpool and plans are afoot???

[griff50tvr]

Again, thanks to TVR for a great day - except for not being allowed a drive the Sagaris!

Dealers told me that there's to be a dealer day at the factory this month where they learn all about the Sagaris and drive away in their own demonstrator. So far, there's only 5 cars ready apparently so its getting close. Time to start holding your breath .....?!

I got an invite with a christmas card as well. They said that they are going to arrange some more further south, so I thought, I'll wait for that then.

Yes, but Gav's battries were flat!

That's no excuse, always take spare Duracell.

Likewise I heard of it from the Christmas card and I was booked into the 350 and Tuscan, but had to cancel first thing this morning when....

..... my TVR broke down!

No, the Sagaris (Sagari? - there were two of them present) were just for looking at!

The car I was slated to drive (one of the T350C's) was strangely silent, too, by mid afternoon. A slightly flustered TVR PR man (Ben Samuelson?) slotted me into one of the other T350C's, though.

First time I've driven the Speed 6 engine - isn't it a pussycat compared to the 5 litre RV8? No longer need TVR ownership and an irrational fear of damp roundabouts go hand in hand!

I received some info about these 'drive days' with my christmas card, but I've lost it. Has anybody got a link to a website where I can find out about future dates, or anything like that? or phone numbers, because I remember phone numbers with the info.

Grouch.

WHAT COLOURS WHERE THE SAGARI
COME ON SOME ONE POST SOME PICS!!!!!!!!!

[ginner]

Yep,

I got the invite in my christmas card as well, but judging by the letter i've just sent them, i'll be off the list next Christmas?

[RobW]

I took some pics of the Sagaris, have sent them to the news desk here so they can do an article hopefully.

Also getting a chance to look around the factory next on Monday next week as the Tuscan is in for its service and i'll see if they'll let me take some more pics of the Sagaris's coming off the line.

All the dealer demos are going to be delivered on the same day around the week commencing the 21st Feb.

[the pits]

Cool, can't wait to see sagaris pics. Did anyone notice if they had slashes cut into the body work or were they filled in?

[RobW]

The slashes are filled in on the road car, they found that it was generating a lot of water spray, as well if you went over some gravel it would come through the slashes and chip the paint. If you order the RT version as a track day car the slashes are kept in for aerodynamics
