Hello there, went to look at a few TVR Chims today in a dealer and have a few questions:

1. Most of the dash wood surround thingys appeared to be cracked, is this normal? If so, how easy to replace?
2. Are the brakes, etc, different on the 5.0?
3. Is the price of 12K for a 1996 5.0 (with PAS) fair?

Thanks in advance

Lee

Ok, this is the car...

Was VERY nice to drive, had a fair few stone chips mind, but I would use it so it would no doubt end up getting stonechipped anyway...

None yet....

But the dealer was more than willing for me to try as many as I wanted.

The only problem is that I have to go away with work for 6 weeks soon, so may as well wait until I get back, but it was VERY nice!

That was what I was planning on doing, I reckon I will want a 5.0 ltr version though!

Thing is, if I was not going away I reckon I would buy that one! But 6 weeks is a long time, when the 3 month warranty will be ticking away..
