I spotted this yesterday while i was walking around Nuneaton, well i say spotted, i heard that classic V8 TVR Rumble before i saw it! It was definitely a stunning sound, and the car looked gorgeous too! it also had the "speed12" headlight conversion?

Are you a member of PH?

Thanks,
Oliver

Oliver,

Hey cheers mate, I guess that was me, the colour is Suzuki Candy Yellow, I have done the straight thru exhuast modification, hence the odd pop and bang!


Should sound even better once TVR Power have took the cats out as part of cam/chip/BV heads upgrade post Le Mans!

Cheers

Oliver,

Thanks for the positive comments, I guess it is a matter of taste, but I realy like the colour, and it's the only one in it.

You should see the car out and about around Nuneaton -usually only takes a break in the clouds!

You would be more than welcome to come along and tyre kick @ the West Midland TVR monthly meet @ the Bulls Head Meriden, usually midday onwards every third Sunday of the month.

Well yellow is one of my favorite colours, so i guess i would be a tad biased too I would imagine with that evocative sound and colour it would certainly get an awful lot of looks!

The meet up at Meriden sounds great! and some fantastic roads going up that way too. I will have to keep an eye on my diary and see if i can fit it in, it certainly sounds like a great meet up, and it would be great to see a bunch of TVR's together. Will you be at Super Car Sunday on sunday 19th of June?

Oliver,

You obviously have good taste, you should have come along to the "Yellow TVR Meet" at the Heritage Motor Museum at Gaydon on the 24th April....quality gathering of the fastest coloured TVR's!


Unfortunateley I will be in Le Mans on 19th June, going down there in the chim with another 8 (or so) cars. One of my mates with an orange cerbie (cirby)ended up in some sort of final 3 competition for best supercar last year, sounded good fun.
