We are looking for people who would like to sell their Griffith 500's for a TV show to be shown on Men and Motors called the Used Car Roadshow. We're looking to do a feature on how the Griffith is an affordable sports car, and we want to feature one that is for sale and affordable.

We will be filming this at the 19th Classic car show in tatton park on the 5th June.

If you're intrested please contact me on research@daisybeck.tv

Mine is not for sale, and I would suggest that trying to encourage anybody off the street to buy one, without stressing the need for a good degree of driver skill and training, is irresponsible in the extreme.

They are not MX5's, and you need time to get to know their characteristics. I warned a fellow Griff owner that I took on a test drive prior to him buying one, to drive as if he had a sword of Damacles hanging over him. He still managed to write his car off within two months, luckily without serious injury.

Thses are cars to be approached with the full knowledge and care of just how powerful they are, and that they do not have any drivers aids at all.

Once you get used to them, though, they're great, as Tony the Tiger says, and I wouldn't be without mine for all the tea in China.

Wouldn't the classifieds be the best place to look?

I have been thinking of changing my Griff (for another TVR obviously) and could be tempted!
Mines a 95/N, 59k miles, silver metallic with navy blue interior and roof, sports exhaust, PAS, usual extra goodies, full history (last serviced last week), all MOTs etc.
Great performance looks and sound. Totally reliable.
Classis car insurance - £380 agreed value - wahey!
£14,995.

Personal number plate 500 WXM available separately.
