Nice example of a Griff (in the best colour) spotted on my walk home along Kotto dori in Minami-Aoyama, Tokyo...
just after the rains had been and gone....

Looked pretty original inside ... blue leather, wooden dash, standard radio, etc.

You may be surprised, have a few Japanese owners on the Griff Facebook page, at least four Griffs on the link. They did have the special edition "Blackpool B340" supplied over there after all.

Edit. Sorry great spot though.

This is the second Griff I have seen here on Kotto dori ...
Also saw a Tuscan last year in the middle of Roppongi .. the competition here though is with all of the Ferraris, Lamborginis, and Mclarens ...

Don't know if The Lambo drivers know how to drive them properly on the streets of Tokyo though ... they always seem to be over-revving them at traffic lights etc....

A few TVR's of all sorts in Japan apparently, PH'er "Yoichi" posts up a few pics occasionally. Common denominator appears to be the fact they all look polished to a T smile
