Metallic blue Chim A258 Kent

[chris1972]

heading towards Dover. Nice burble as you past. JF Returns car or someone else?

[JFReturns]

Not me Chris - went to Whitstable in the Chim on Saturday.

[s p a c e m a n]

I saw one on the opposite carriageway to me this morning going into Lydden Hill.

[JFReturns]

That was probably me

[Andy_mr2sc]

Possibly me? Was in Deal today via Canterbury and Dover.

[s p a c e m a n]

I did wave, I think I had a tube of pringles in my hand at the time and was trying to entertain myself with the radio

[Andy_mr2sc]

Sorry I missed that. I was probably busy checking out the convoy of cars waiting to get in to the bhp show today!

[JFReturns]

Andy, you're Chim is gorgeous!

Spaceman, what car were you in?

I'm very happy with my Chim - we were stuck for an hour in that traffic up to Lydden, some lads had managed to have a crash which slowed things right down, but she behaved perfectly! Hit 85 and the fans kicked and cooled things down nicely.



EDIT: That's 85 degrees C, not MPH, just in case any friendly BiB were wondering!

Stolen from the BHP thread

Did you go? If so I have a picture of your car!

Thank you very much! I saw a blue T350 in the queue but no chims.
Was that the metallic blue saxo in the crash southbound? Probably too busy adjusting his stereo to watch what had stopped in front.

[JFReturns]

Think I saw you? Gave you the thumbs up.

(Spaceman that is)

The stereo in a Saxo is normally drowned out by the drainpipe exhaust.

That T350 was gorgeous! Saw it parked up, plate was Dobbie or such like. STUNNER!

Yay, yeah most probably. I was in my own little world and when I glanced over the road I saw you looking but had my hands full, I don't normally wave a tube of pringles at random people. Honest

Haha fair point well put!!
I guess you are local then?

[chris1972]

Yep, just off the A258 in the sticks. I haven't seen another TVR since I bought my own and then two in two days (similar to the bus service around here)... somebody else with a grey/ silver Griff. Deal car show in a week or so. Was thinking of taking the Chim down if she's back on the road.

[JFReturns]

There were a few cars crashed - saw a VW, Saxo and another that went down the bank

No idea how those lads managed to crash like that, not as though the road were slippery... anyway, they all seemed safe and sound, lets hope they learn!

Thanks that was me, almost my first spotted!!

[Andy_mr2sc]

Dobbie- stunning car. Stood out in a row of scoobys, evos, skylines etc...

Chris- I'm in Dover and I (think I) know most of the local tvrs. Are you in the Tvr club? I didn't know about the deal car meet. Can you give me more details and I'll call in.
