Only took about eight or nine months to find it but hey it was worth the wait. Picked it up today and drove home in an absolute downpour. I hope it dries up a bit soon. I NEED to get out in it.

Congratulations, an early Xmas present.

Nice looking car.

As you've already driven it a downpour, I'm sure I don't need to say "take it easy".

And here's hoping for some dry weather.

Neil.

Yes I seem to be making a habit of buying TVRs just before Xmas. Picked up the Chimaera on 9th of December. Had to wait until January for the first sunny day to get the roof off (it was still -4C )

I was looking at that one was i was at Hexham getting my Cerbera serviced, It looked a very clean genuine car with "apparently" some VERY loud sports pipes on it (according to Tony). I see they have added some 17 inch alloys on it, changes the whole appearance of the car.

Yep the pipes are loud. He happened to have a set of anthracite RLs in from refurb when I was there so I got him to hold one against the car while I stood back. They do make a big difference.
