Has anybody else found a loose cable in the footwell???
After checking in the footwell what a job it would be to change the pedal box setting (found itchy´s thread-ahem already) I was asthonished by all the stuff crammed in there - in the usual TVR order (squeeze in Joe there must be more spacerolleyesnote www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=382250&f=7&h=0...).
Especially my eyes got caught by a box called dash ecu (bigger than the MBE engine ecu actually) and all the wireing there- then I found a loose triple plug on red, black and violet wires but no plughole nearby to fix it- it seems to sit there loose- anybody else found this- car seems not to need it- as all working (at least it was until I parked it...hehe)
Interestingly there was also a stepcounter (one of these jogging thingies) in the footwell- either the last Lady Owner (sorry Katie) did her workouts in the car ( very succesfull btw as she is very good looking) or TVR used this as secret development car for wear and tear of the clutch/pedalbox in relation to the number of steps used scratchchin biglaugh unfortunately there is no factory to ask...
Anyway does the forum think I need to investigate this cable further????

Yes this is the norm, cables everywhere. My hat goes off to Top Gear Automotive, as you said no room in the foot well. These guys changed my throttle cable today, and what a pig of a job it was. Well done guys!
