Dude, that's not the spirit! Welcome to the wonderful world of TVR ownership. I only know of three marques of car where the owners wave at each other (2CV and Land Rovers, but not the new ones) and you'll be surprised how much fun this car will give you, especially over the coming summer months. Enjoy your car, and don't worry about the occasional bill, it's all worth it.
One caveat is to watch the loud pedal for the time being, 75% of single vehicle accidents in TVRs involve drivers who are in their first year of ownership.













But my money's on your windscreen wiper park switch being the first thing to go!

Last thing to fall off will be your grin. Glad you bought a green one cos they're the fastest.

Thanks lads, and Rich I had a German machine last, very fast, never broke down, no rattles, every bit fitted and did not fall off. I got bored.

I've had my Griff for nearly a year and I haven't (touch wood), joined the AA yet, so don't believe everything you read about bits dropping off.

Welcome to TVR ownership. Dont believe everything you read on PH if you (and the previous owners) look after it you get no more problems than any other car. And if it does go wrong you will still be quids in compared to being riped off by Porc dealers for there anual running costs.
Have fun drive safe drive loud.
