From the TVR S forum - He has built an S for trials!!! but now has gone for more power!

People love TVRs because they are loud, powerful, purposeful, un-encumbered by driving aids and have heritage...

...so this could be an honorary TVR...

Probably fairer to see TVRs could be honorary Fiats, or Sunbeams, or Darracqs.

If you haven't seen these beasts in action then it's highly recommended.

The 1905 Darracq - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8Z9RR4ZmLM - "On a motorway, at top gear it’s doing 84 mph at 1000 rpm, but that’s really only ticking over.” eek

Hope the chain does not break and chop the drivers head off, as happened to Thomas with Babs at Pendine sands.
