New member and 1st TVR after 9 years of TR6 ownership

[Dave JRH]

Hi All,

Picked up my first TVR last weekend, can't use it in anger yet as waiting for our friends at DVLA to return my private plate documents and tax.

It is a 4.0 litre HC and i must say how impressed i am with it so far

I live in Northamptonshire so hopefully be out and about over Easter, DVLA willing of course

Regards

Dave

Nice pair of cars!

DVLA took 2 weeks to change mine recently.

Hi, as said two good looking cars, I hope you're keeping the TR.

TVRs and a Windmill - that has to be Tony Gilbert's place!?

Well spotted chaps, yes that is Tony Gilbert's place.

We entered into an "arrangement" where he had my TR6 and i had one of his TVR's

I took a few photos of the two together

Welcome Dave, nice choice. I bought mine from Tony nearly 18 months ago, no complaints whatsoever & true to his word regarding warranty etc. Sywell is a great meeting point, look forward to seeing you there at a monthly meet.

Hi Richard and thanks, yes Tony is a lovely chap and such a wonderful setting to buy a car in. I used to chug pass his windmill in my narrow boat little knowing what lurked up there.

Two British icons, in a way both are undervalued classics.... but the TVR more so.

An excellent migration from great to fantastic, you will not be disappointed
