Yep. Will be helping out on the TVRCC stand on Sunday. There will be six cars representing the 6 decades of TVR, from Grantura Mk1 to Sagaris.

My 450 SEAC will be on the stand.
Hope to see you there!
I'm currently lying half-dead in front of the fire knocked for 6 with flu; second day on the trot.

One way or another,
My Tiv WILL be there........

If you see a bundle of blankets lying at the back of the stand.
Please come and give them a kick and say hello - ta

Thanks Roy, looks like a few of us SE Kent lot will be heading over on Sunday to say hello.

Really enjoyed manning the TVRCC stand a few (3 or 4) years back, so will be good to wander over and say hello.

Our Sagaris was on the stand and the day (Sat) was amazing!

Brilliant atmosphere, great cars, met some really lovely people and had a good wander round before setting up camp on the TVRCC stand and watching people oggle the stand

Really big thanks to Justin, Chris and Duncan who were keen to talk to me and the Mrs all day too!

A good day out and some excellent cars, as well as one of the best cups of latte ever from the little pink van in the corner of the main hall

It was a bit heavy on the trade stands compared to cars this time around, but certainly the quality was there, I fell for at least three of the classic cars, and have decided a classic Griffith or Tuscan is a must at some point.

But did anyone notice the PR staff on the Barclaycard stand...

Yes - I presume you mean 'avoided'?

Cracking show - it was a real pleasure to be on the stand.

Best bit for me was hearing the Cobra engined Griff 400 arriving in the hall on Friday - absolutely the best noise I've ever heard a TVR make.

Cars on the TVR CC stand were superb, loved them all.

I was amazed at the 390hp Griff 5L. Lots of HP for a 5L in any man's book. Stunning car!

...with the enormous Pistonheads-mickypee sticker cool

that is one immaculate Griff. Didn't dare touch it for fear you'd get my fingerprint.
