Looks like a good car, was hoping for a bit of background first.

[mrmaggit]

Looks ok, personally don't like ally dashes, is it a little underpriced?

[DustyC]

Sounds fantastic. I'd buy it (and thats saying something!)

[_topcat]

That does say a lot coming from you Dusty.( going on the car hunting history posted). That may be a solid gold recommendation from you!

[DustyC]

I did a search on the members area but could find this guy.
Try search the TVRCC site too.

I did it for every car I viewed!

I think it looks like a well looked after griff. Very tasty.
If I was looking and this car was as good as it say then I'd go for it.

Also looks like you'd have no troubles passing it on in the future as it suits a lot of tastes.
(Ali dash not my cuppa either but it wouldnt put me off).


Remember, their arent many out there so when you find a good one, go for it.

Nice one dusty. Well, have taken a deposit on my car and hope to complete next week. I have emailed the griff chap but no response. I will wait until my bank account is briming over again before i go and see it. Have to buy a Pajero thingy in the mean time to be a runaround.
Cnat wait for griffith power though!!!

[shnozz]

I have to say I saw that one advertised and thought what a beauty.

[DustyC]

Dont wait! snap it up!

Shnozz, I know someone that sounds just like you!

[Painey]

Lovely colour that...

Quite like those carpets too and without hijacking the thread, anybody know where you can get them? If I'm missing something blindingly obvious here please be aware it's Friday and I've just come back from the pub!!

Cheers - Chris

I've just ordered some for my car, although am going for the carpet heel pad rather than bright alloy.

You can get them from www.autostyle.co.uk

Cheers,

Well....I think its a genuine car and seller, he is coming all the way from Bristol to london to look at my Tuscan S, I was very tempted with his car but ended up buying Graham 500's high milage Griff, because I am having the engine rebuilt and tweeked a bit.

That is his second TVR, the first being a Cerbie, and he has done very little milage over the last 16 months.

I think it looks a cracker. I bought Graham's because of the Wheels and the Nitrons which saved me a couple of grand for starters.

[cavers]

i am a long time club member and is a well known car

Ah i was wondering if Graham had finally sold it, Been out for a spin with him a couple of times including down to Le Mans. Taht car got pulled over in France By the Gendarme but didnt get a ticket good nows how not.
A very nice looking motor and i think from Memeory Topcats looked after it for him.
Restasured It was driven slowely Why the engine rebuild if you dont mind me asking.

Lovely car, great colour, high milage only bothers me a bit.

But I am having a few bits done by Tower View.

like a 218 cam, larger injectors, ACT 2 pot Plenhem and air intake with uprateed airflow meter, MA chip with RR session, new silicon hoses, maganacore leads, roll bar, and anything else that needs doin!(like a new oilpump and timing chain)

But then it will be a beast!!!!!

doesn't need it I just want it!!

High mileage, it's a Rover V8, they go on for ever and a day if they're looked after, which this one looks like it is - far better to have a car that's driven than one that gathers dust and drys up.

[Corin Denton]

Ed, fantastic looking car mate. Do it!

[_topcat]

Yeah i know. cant sleep thinking about it. will have to go and see i tthis week i think. i have to buy my other car this week too though(pajero). will try and squeeze it all in. oh i suppose i should go to work at some point aswell. we'll see!
