Thought I'd show you a few things about my particular cerb that are a little different.

It's had a few previous owners so their is a history, each person adding their own little signature before passing her on.

Anyway, probably more of interest to the newbies, but feel free to add stuff you have too, it would be interesting to see.





cool RL7 wheels with gold brakes, clear indicators



TVR logo 'carbon fibre' smile sticker cross pillar



easy access 100 amp Big Fuse (now 125 Bigger Fuse) by previous owner




accumate charger + mains plug



ice - sooooper woofah...



..tiny tweeter



MP3 / ipod controller.


gold TVR badge, THE ENGLAND FLAG - personal 3/4 plate, and ally mesh needs straightening wink

....stone chips





Leven cover to keep cats and little fingers at bay!

Looks like grubby little Pier is about to wee biglaugh

Where do these bubble-buttons come from? I was thinking about changing my buttons as the standard ones are a bit sh*t.

There's a very nice chap on here that does them. Will have to have a dig around some old threads.

I got some of these from him a couple of months back, think his name is Jonathon Hughes if I remember correctly. Only a tenner too....

I had a set as well - excellent.

I know Jon changed jobs a month or two back so I'm not sure if he is still doing them but I am sure he will be on to tell us in due course.

On the subject of buttons, i recently fitted new aluminium outer rings to steering wheel,window, and the two buttons by the heater controls. Really gives them that solid look.

No problems with the other stuff, not particularly keen on the ally mesh, but lose the logo'd 'CF' stickers on the pillars. I'm not sure which bit I dislike most: the wrongly-proportioned TVR logo or the fact that it's not real carbon fibre, unlike the rear.

well I quite like the stickers now they; grew on me - but they are starting to lift so I was thinking of taking them off, hence the piccie here, not sure what may lie underneath though frown

anyone any ideas where the stickers are from? the kick plates on the door are Mole Valley so I wonder if the stickers were a TVR part put on the same time...

Could the stickers be hiding a milky white windscreen at the edge.

I have this same problem on mine, so stickers like that would really tidy things up.
