Just got to see my beloved Chimaera for the first time since my crash back in January.
Although I have no memory of the accident, I knew from reports that it was bad and I was lucky to survive the way I did.
I had broken ribs and collar bone, punctured lung, severe whiplash etc, which was bad enough, but having seen the damage now, I'm just thankful to be here to say this!!
It hasn't put me off TVR's at all, as I knew what I was buying into and have to believe that cant happen to me again!

So hopefully I'll be back in the fold when all the dust settles, but this is a wee word of warning to all TVR drivers to be careful out there....

If you are not easily shocked, then check the pic in my profile

Glad to hear you're recovering. How did the accident occur and what happened with the dangerous driving charge? (if you're happy to discuss those, of course)

Thanks guys

Honestly dont remember a thing about the accident, but apparently theres a honda crv involved with an axle virtually ripped off in the collision!
I dont want to discuss it too much at the moment as there is a court case pending....
I hope to be back sooner rather than later though, so the classifieds are being scanned regularly!

Is that the same wheels as on the Griff? I could do with a 15". Couldn't we all, I hear you whisper.

Looks nasty though.
