I have it on good authority that Red Glow Pearlescent is the new Cosmos blue.

Lovely looking car, how much would it cost to make my Chimaera look like this then?

You need a big truck to drive into your rear to get the back end flattened out, then nick a spare bonnet and stick it on the roof, plus a couple of batman Halfords add-ons to finish the job. Don't get them to fit too well though, leave that to the customer

I'm still running it in, but the handling and ride quality is brilliant. It loves roundabouts ... easily as good as an Impreza/EVO on the twisties - it really is that good. I've only gone to 3,500rpm so far and it's enough to pass most traffic. Can't wait to open it up after the 1,000 mile service.

The downside is that TVR still don't finish building their cars and you still need to be a contortionist to check the levels ... the targa panels needed a bit of adjusting and someone was having a laugh when they let the passenger door card out of the factory. No clonks or rattles though.

Oh, it doesn't have that v8 burble either.

I must admit that the T350 looks lovely..I have seen the earlier ones coming down in value now to around £30k which if I get some decent sales commission in this year may make it possible...However I also love Cerberas so feel a bit torn..as to the next TVR in a year or so..

Well since Cosmos blue is the new black then......nice

However, it cant be a real TVR if it ain't blue
