Hello.

Just bought my first TVR, a T350t and loving it. What a great car. Did lots of online research and knew what I was buying. Very pleased with my decision.

Just a couple of questions,

To the best of my knowledge it's Bentley Midnight blue, I haven't seen any other cars in this colour (specifically "Bentley") and was wondering if anybody knows if it is an official TVR colour?

Also I am hoping to get to Le Mans next year and was wondering if anybody had any advice as to go with the TVRCC or with Pistonheads?

Out of interest are there many other T350's in the Falmouth/Truro area, and is there a good showing at the TVRCC monthly meet for Cornwall?

Happy driving

I am already a member of the TVRCC. To be honest I look on here most as there doesn't seem to be much activity on the TVRCC for Cornwall.

Met up with Geoff again the other week at Castle Coombe - we first met toooo many years ago to remember. He never seems to change, always has a smile on his face (maybe its just wind).

A lucky region.

Car looks ace.

As far as I know 'official TVR colours' were anything you wanted.

For Le Mans it depends what you want. I've always been with the TVRCC. They provide a pitch and entrance tickets. You just need to get yourself over there. Nothing too tricky to it and I've never seen the need for anything extra.

Welcome to the wonderful world of TVRs, be warned I've had one for over 30 years, there is no escape. Cornwall region meet every first sunday of the month at the Victoria Inn on the old A30 over Goss Moor at lunchtime for a bite & blast somewhere. We usually get 12+ cars, currently no T350s but evrything from 60's Grantura to Cerb. There is a Tomora lurking in the Penzance area I haven't managed to catch yet. You are welcome to join in the chaos, Geoff smile

Cheers Geoff,

Will see you there. Unfortunately I am working away at the minute so will show up the first one in November. It's terrible, just got the car and had to leave it at home, gutted!!! Very much looking forward to getting back as you can imagine!bounce
