It has come to my attention from a fellow Tvr Owner and PistonHeader (Guess who) that the T350C was maybe designed Loosely on the The Loverly 1960's Citreon.



As you can see there are many resemblances like the front lights and the way the bonnet curves beautifully down between them. Also the roof line is very similar although the Tesco's has been stamped on to make it a little Lower as us British are so much shorter than our French Cousins and dont need the Bagette room.

What say you on weather the designers at TVR may have been influenced buy the oh so succesful/pretty Citreon??

Lucky strike, that's all! Just finished a Chinese takeaway, logged on and saw the pic.

(What an amazing similarity there appears to be between the two vehicles, Mr Cholmondly-Warner...)
