• Happy anniversary/birthday to me party


She’s 9years old today, three years to the day with me. I still remember driving her back from Stanstead. I don’t think I can remember the last time I felt so nervous/excited/scared driving a car in the 17 years I have been driving!

Three years on and I still love it. It’s an event every time I go out in it, the noise when giving it some still makes me giggle like a kid. Every so often I get a little scare just to remind me not to drive like a bellend.

All the attention the car receives is positive, the Piston Heads TVR community has supported me from the start and its not broken the bank apart from a new Rad and some suspension bushes its all been ‘upgrades’


Looking forward to the next twelve months, I have promised myself I will use it more (4K is a bit light) I will get my ass out of bed and go to the Herts/Beds monthly meet as its only about 12 miles from home!

Just treated her to a wash and a fresh coat of Dodo Juice ready for a trip out tomorrow to Waddesden chilli festival!

Buying a TVR was the best decision I have made* As long as I can afford it I won’t be without one.

TVRs are well cared for and loved cars generally. How many 9 year old cars look as good as this ?? 4k miles per annum is not enough shep !!

That does look great. Credit to you and happy birthday to you both! Hope mine looks that good in nine years time (it's probably gonna take that long)
