The more TVR's in convoy the better ! In March we had 7 Cerbera's, 2 Tuscans, a Griff, a 911 & a Scooby all in convoy going to Elvington.... We were stopping traffic ! www.tvr-cerbera.fsnet.co.uk/elvington.htm

Not that I'm likely to miss you, but what colour is your Tuscan ?

As Lagoo says, if you can be at South Mimms (junction of A1 and M25) in the service area car park at between 9 and 9.30 am then you can join a dozen or so already going in convoy.

Not sure yet if we'll go the A10 route or the A1 route.

Duxford Tickets info see:

Duxford - who's going in what.

For those who have not yet booked, you still can but be quick.
E-mail me or ring ASAP.
The BBQ and 'Sprinting are fully booked but the rest of the day is still open and intersting.

Regards

Andy

I know the problem well. When I had my Cerbera I tried to lob a £1 coin into the automatic 'bucket'. Trouble is I missed, hit the edge of the bucket and the coin rolled under the car. As it was the only £1 coin I had handy I felt a bit of a plonker crawling around on the ground trying to retrieve it with a queue of fuming/laughing drivers stacked up behind. Once I got through the Cerbera's accleration came in quite handy for making a sharp exit!

Yes,

I'll be there in the 'beat up blue S'. There maybe another interloper of Japanese descent aswell...

Chaps,

I have a spare seat in the Cerbera if anyone needs.

Preference goes of course to single ladies, but having been let down by a "mate" it seems a shame not to use spare ticket.

Email me for mobile no.
