Did anyone hear that stupid little tosser last night.Couldnt even talk about the factory christmas card without making a sarcastic comment about low oil pressure and unreliability.Probably sour grapes,not being able to drive one due to not being able to see over the dashboard.

If you'd had a Pug 106CC you'd have been really upset by the comments that it took a year to put the hood. The TVR card got no better or worse treatment han the others. We're just partisan.

Cummon....chill out....they r making a TV prog for ALL the public and have to make it entertaining for them...inc the numties who don't want or can't afford a fun car.

Meanwhile u got one of the best...lets face it...there are only two makes of car that fit the bill and rarris are twice the price....so u should be the contented one with the smug grin....yeah ?


But why did TVR send them a flippin card anyway ?....odds on it wouldn't get them anywhere....scored well with the charm offensive by giving all us lot one each....but then bit of an own goal methinks.

And at least people will have seen the card and thought... "bl**dy 'ell! space age or what".

TVR... even the Christmas card looks fast!

Don't worry about it.

I've been told he has a very small dick and undersized testicles to go with his other and more obvious size deficiencies. This is his way of compensating. You should pity him rather than attack him.

just trouble

Hello fella's. You MUST be talking about the poision dwarf on TG. Didn't he have a sister who was in a show called Dallas a few years ago boy she was a nasty bit of work too. Must be lack of natural light or something

Hammond has made no bones about the fact he doesn't like TVRs in the past... and that he drives a 911.

I am sure you are right - I have never been surprised at the contents of a blokes underpants. Not that I have a lot of experience mind you - but it must be woman's intuition.

I am a Porsche owner and I loved my festive TVR card.... I think the three year old deposit for the Tuscan helps

Well actually i quite enjoyed TG last night. You see in addition to the Chimaera I own a Z32 Nissan 300zx, and I must admit that it was very gratifying to watch my 'old lardy car' kick the arse of the new 350z.

So, tell me, £25K on a new, Renault engined, 350z or £6K for a Twin Turbo V6 300zx and enough money left over to pay for a nice 5ltr Chimaera. Guess which one I chose.

Have a good Christmas everyone.

Wasn't really a good race though was it? Put them both round a track and the old one would get detroyed especially in the wet.

As for Hammonds comments, it comes with the territory, TVR are notoriously unreliable - having owned a particularly bad one I lol at his comments. the truth does hurt but it's still the truth.

Had to chuckle when he said the Skoda card got top marks for mentioning the "C" word. Little twerp clearly can't read what's right under his nose then 'cos the TVR one says Merry Christmas right bang slap in the middle of it! I know it's not meant to be accurate just entertainment but sometimes the inconsistency just makes me cringe! Rich...

I agree on a track it would probvabally be a different matter, but it wasn't was it, it was a 1/5th mile shoot out and a 13yr old car won. ever been in a nicely tuned 300zx Z32? If not you're more than welcome for a blast in mine, 350 bhp ish, I've had 165 on the GPS. It's no slough and bang for buck a hard act to beat.
