Tomorrow, all being well, my TVR will be going. Very mixed emotions but i've had 18 months of non stop grinning while behind the wheel. My period of TVR ownership has been totally without incident, my Chim has NEVER let me down and the only money i've had to spend has been a new battery!

Anyway a friend of mine who is going through a rough patch atm is a big petrol head so this evening after she finished work I met up with her and threw her the keys to the TVR. I haven't seen somebody so genuinely happy for a long time, genuinely made her day. I know it's only a Chim and not a exotic worth millions but to be able to share it on the eve of saying goodbye has really made me smile.

Cool story bro etc but just wanted to share! Being a petrolhead has to be about making other people smile I reckon!

You are getting rid & its never let you down, believe me if my cerb had never let me down i would have never let it go!

Lovely sentiment though regarding your friend, glad she enjoyed it, hope you buy something else to put a smile on your face. smile

The VBRJ jokes would certainly bring a tear to many an eye.
