TVR dealer in Kent
Discussion
Went to what used to be a TVR dealer on the A20 out of Maidstone today, only to find the forecourt full of 4x4 boxes. Does anyone know of a decent TVR dealer in Kent that I can visit to view a few cars? Whilst I am familiar with most TVR model names, thay don't mean much to me in terms of specifications or what the cars actually look like.
Whilst on the subject, can anyone recommend a TVR model that could be used as a daily driver, with enough boot space for weekly shopping and luggage for the odd weekend away.
Thanks guys.
>> Edited to add, I think I know what a Griffith looks like, and quite like the look of it. Any good?

Chimaera 450 or a Tuscan.
Chimaera is probably the easiest to live with and probably the most frequently used 'daily driver' TVR.
Tuscan, buy carefully. Boot is even bigger and the car is much faster. Can be a bit highly strung but, hey, you've got a Countach so you know the score!
Edited to add: strong recommend for TVR Centre in Barnet (J23 M25). Griff a harder edged Chimaera, smaller boot than Chimaera.

Your best bet is to ask about the Tamora in the Tamora forum.
As for local dealers, in short there aren't any, Walldonway, as you have discovered, tend to lean towards Subarus these days.
Other than the TVR Centre at Barnet, North London, then Dream Machines in East Sussex is the nearest: www.dreammachinestvr.co.uk/

TVR Centre or Dream Machines will look after you as mentioned, dont forget Gatwick TVR - if you want to see a few Tivs in the flesh & have a chat with their owners why not come to our local TVRCC at Dunton Green meet on the 24th? Theres also another meet at The Woodman on Easter Monday that a few of the locals might pop along to - not sure yet.
Drop me a line throught my profile for more details - leave your number if you like & I'll give you a call.
I drive a Griff 500 & work in South London - I wouldnt really want to use it as a daily driver, but I know several people who do.

Dream Machines Heathfield East Sussex. Easily the best recommend simply for the cracking roads out to them!
You want a coupe or roadster? Roadster...buy a Griffith. Coupe...buy a T350 or a Sagaris. T350 is the wimp version, the Sagaris is a slut plain and simple. I use my Sagaris everyday and I do weekend and weeks away in her, in fact going down to France tonight for a week away with luggage for 2.
Waldonway are a Suzuki love in these days.
