Ha Ha....was just watching that vid myself, and thinking the same thing...

It used to be owned by 'Swordfish' on here, but I believe he got rid. Don't know where it is now.

There were 5 cars (IIRC) used for Looney Tunes...different ones for interior/exterior/in motion shots etc I presume. As far as I can tell mine hasn't worn a bunch of spoilers at any time, so I'm guessing it was used for some of the other shots - such as this: www.pistonheads.com/tvr/default.asp?storyId=7994

I bought it from Silverstone TVR when they first opened and had some used stock direct from TVR etc. It was in pretty much A1 condition when I bought it...I wish I could say the same now - I use cars rather than wash them!!!

Funny, I just found this searching on Google.

I hope sometime Saturday, 9th Martin will no longer own the car, but me...
