Just had my Tussy S serviced at Torque RVT, and what can I say, well if Carlsberg made TVR garages....

....it all adds to my own TVR experience, and from beginning to end the service/attitude they provided was top notch, I mean how many places let you pick your car up at 10.30pm? running sweet with all the niggles sorted, and even more so be met with one of the most dedicated, enthusiastic and friendliest bloke I've ever had the pleasure to meet, it even cost less than expected, with a t-shirt thrown in for free aswell!!!! just the one downside for myself, the girlfriend wasnt to impressed after promising I'd only be 5 minutes picking it up

TVR Still alive, Still kickin, Lovin it!!!

I tell you I am seriously considering setting up a catering van outside his place, I would make a fortune.

Also see if Peter will let me put a caravan on there and rent it out £10 per night

I left his at 1am this morning and he still wasn't home at 2.30am.

I don't know how he does it either.

OK - beat 08.30am for a late finish !

Got there at 10pm the previous night once, and ended up turning nocturnal.

Hoping I can pick the Griffith up at a sensible hour this time, maybe 3am ???

Looking forward to my late night experience a week on Friday, when I pick my Cerb up, don't know whether to just get there at 2 a.m. instead and then it won't make the wait feel that much longer

Echo the top banana bloke though - is he wearing those G-A-Y uniforms still wavey
have to get a picture for 'hot or not'
