i just met friedhelm weismann in the bp garage OMG!!!
Discussion
now i know this isnt the norm to post stuff like this but, i was driving back from a work at about 8 am wen i randomly pulled into a bp garage on the north circular near the chingford exit, now normally i would use my local one but because there is some charging issues i dint want to do a qick start stop without getting a decent drive inbetween ( just trying to make it clear how random this is)
when i pulled into the station , i couldnt beleive my eyes , my dream car sitting there , immaculate in possibly just my colours,
i was leaping up and down exclaiming in vague shock at this, then a 50 yr old man walks up and i start shaking his hand saying how amazing his car is , he was german and needed directions to hampstead as he was delivering it to a german footballer and was lost and needed directions but didnt speak very good english, it was at this point i realized he was one of the brothers , i asked him and he was , i then was shaking his hand even more he gave me his card and a cd and a brochure ,
i tried to help him with his directions , he was confused by the postcode and couldnt seem to use his built in satnav, i tried to help as best i could but was babbling a bit and sensing he was bemused, took some pics ,and stood there open mouthed as the beauty drove away (obvs i v never seen a real one before)
how cool is that that the brothers deliver their own cars (mayb its only to footballers).....needless to say i m very impressed

no he didnt say who it was for but did have a letter that i failed to absorp all the info on it , i did type the postcode into google maps on my phone to show him where he had to go and it still there now , in hindsight i wish i ad told him to follow me and i had shown him where to go, now that would have been something to remember.

This was tested against the Tuscan on Top Gear, the Tuscan beat it in a the tests and soundly beat it on the lap. We're all different thank heavens,I can't lust after something that is a rip off of a 1950's Jag XK and is not as quick as a TVR, still ,viva la differance!
If I could afford the price difference I'd swap my T350 for one of these in a heartbeat. Stunning cars IMHO....
Nice one OP!
This is well worth a watch, for anyone who likes Wiesmann. Their facility looks stunning!

That would be a TVR Tuscan then, with 380hp, against the Wiesmann MF3 with 343hp, the entry-level model and the oldest car the company produces... Nice and fair of Top Gear. This car would appear to be a Roadster MF5, which is currently powered by the X6M's twin-turbo V8 and has 555hp. Quite quick, then.
