Also be sure ot wash down the brake calipers and disks and underneath, with that amount of salt on the car I have been left with pads firmly corroded onto disks when an expected run in a couplfe days actually was a month away and I couldn't get it washed.

On a gravel drive it just dragged the front wheels until it started digging in !

I thought someone had taken a bite out of your wing and plugged in some jump leads and filled it with wiring - until I realised it was just (hopefully) a reflection!

Hi Wyn,

Good to meet you on the NYE tunnel run. Mine looked pretty much as dirty afterwards too !! Bloody Salty Welsh roads frown

Didn't get to talk to you guys on the NYE run but my Griff also had a good covering of road crud; first time it's been out on such filthy roads. Still it was all good fun if a little chilly (even with the roof on). Nice to see so many TVRs out to play in one place.

Hi Simon, nice to hook up with you bud. I enjoyed the run, didn't have time to do the second stop but I managed a couple of runs through the tunnels.
I managed to thaw the hose reel out yesterday with a couple of buckets of hot water. I went up to Hay on Wye in the afternoon too, plus all the other blasting around I've bin doing so there was a fair amount of crap on there.

Johnny, the lights are smaller than standard. I've got a pair of proper ones ready but I don't have the brackets for them so I'll have to do a wanted ad at some time.

Chedder, if you are going to have a pop (light hearted) then show me a picture of your dirty Griff and tell me the mileage....or does it stay polished up in the garage and warm to preserve it?

High Mileage dirty Chim owner using it as a daily driver with battle scars!
