Yes was purchased from david gerald cars, seemed to know thier stuff.
Although when I took my 19 y/o old son out in it tonight he said
"I can smell petrol"
"yeah - great ain't it"
"maybe it's running rich?"
30 secs later cuts out - petrol rolling in waves down the drive.
the throttle body? feed hose had popped off even though the J'clip was tight
initially I thought the fuel line from the tank had split.5 mins later sounding sweet and with a few tools added to jack bag we were off.
If the car had PAS the three point turn on the drive would have been done in half the time and we would have stopped some where up the road.
I'm only a few miles from TVR power in Coventry so i'm going to book in for RR session too see what condition the engine is in and maybe get a few bits added to it.
Great night for a drive though misty damp air going in the V8

Welcome to the fold..The pre-cat club is a small and very exclusive club 
As mentioned above, the only reason my car is on road today is the help and assistance from the people on this site, and im sure you will enjoy the car in all weathers
But NEVER EVER been seen driving with the roof on..Its not a Chim

If you're not 100% certain that the flexible fuel lines have been replaced (particularly between the engine and the bulkhead) recently change them ASAP.
