Is that a six page article solely on the Griff?

Best snippet from the article, quote Ravenscroft 'mine (the Griff) looked better (than the Chim) so got made first'

Look forward to this. Spend hours looking for it about 3 weeks ago as someone posted on the TVRCC site it was on sale. Hopefully, be a bit quicker this time.

Interesting article but nothing much you won't already know. One thing made me laugh; they said that "although claimed at 340/320bhp most people reckon a 500 will make around 260/280 these days" which is fair enough but they then go and put 340bhp as the power output in the information panel. biglaugh

I'll be first in the queue tomorrow morning to get my copy. Had a heads up on Facebook earlier. Great to see them being recognised in a 'Classic' car mag already although we all knew they were destined to be classics anyway.
Looking forward to reading the full article.

And we need to make a special effort to cover this fact in next years Growl, ie when it is will be 20 years old. Although you could argue in was 2009 or any year since.

Picked up my copy last night. Well worth a purchase IMO. I do love the Griff / Chim comparisons. hehe

I like the sound of a 20th Anniversary Growl next year, that is a sterling idea bow
