Just wanting to know how many of TVR owners here on Pistonheads live in Scotland? I drive alot between Glasgow and Aberdeen for uni and never really see any. In Glasgow I've not seen a TVR for a while but did see a very nice silver T350 in Aberdeen (king street) a few weeks ago.

I'm living in Ayrshire at present, Silver Chim on M77 yesterday, Topaz coloured Tuscan in Renfield St recently another in Springside Ayrshire on Boxing Day, not the same as above as I spoke to that owner in Renfield St, Purple Tusc spotted on M9 few weeks back, On holiday here last year 4 or 5 Tivs went through the Village.
I'm looking after a few projects in Aberdeen, and as soon as the weather improves mines will get it's legs stretched, it's not Aberdeen's weather that's the problem, as I have NEVER been there in adverse weather in over 25 years of visiting, summer and winter, it's getting there without the rain and snow thats the problem.
A blind man would know he's in central Scotland, as he would hear the rain drops thumping the car.

Regards,

James Sim.

Aberdeen - our current stable includes a Chimaera, Cerbera 4.2, Sagaris, Typhon, and the T440R currently under repair.
By my estimate, there are at least 30 odd TVR's around the Aberdeen area. They just don't all tramp down Union Street at once!!

From Falkirk area. T350 and Chimaera 5L. I'm also the joint RO of the Central Scotland region of the TVRCC. Details are on the web site. Why not come along to a meeting. You don't even have to own a TVR. As long as you are thinking about it.

The blue Cerbie and organge 'gris are probably going to be RPA.
Ill be a member of the Scottish TVR brigade later this yr when we move upto the Borders. Sarah is already starting on her Scottish accent. Given that she has been trying out her "Northern Blackpool monkey" accent for the last two yrs, yer all in for a treat up there!
