Went to the MPH03 on Thursday night and the absolute highlight for me was 1) The TVR Typhon and 2) Jeremy Clarkson making an arse of parking a car (sorry he hurt his leg).

I think the Typhon looks the "business" much better in the "piece" rather than a photo. Longer and bigger than a Tuscan and at about £80K probably reasonable value. However, I don't think that I'll be swapping my Tuscan S as getting the roof off is very important to me. I'm sure that TVR will sell the Typhon in reasonable numbers. I wish it well.

Yes, we went to MPH on Saturday and saw the Typhon.

Unfortunately the Sagaris, ....the T350 on steroids...was not on the stand for the public to look over. It is a really mean looking car that's for sure!.

But the highlight for me too was the Typhon.

What an amazing car!

It has so much more room inside than the Cerb.
I have always had trouble getting in and out of the driver's seat of the Cerb.
I'm not exactly Kate Moss..I have a dodgy knee too(which makes getting out painful)

But I had no trouble climbing in and out of the Typhon.

It's a super car inside and out and it was worth the trip to London just to see that alone.

You should have popped across to Racing Green's stand. I believe that the "Saggy-Arse" was their car and they were taking people "round the back" to have the look at it.

The old girl and I were invited to have a look around it. Must admit that looking around it brought me all over unnecessary! ... I offered Racing Green the wife as a deposit on the car but they turned me down

Took a couple of pictures, but they came out a bit on the dark side

(Note to self: Get a <b>proper</b> flash for next time!)

Is a supercharged Tuscan R really driveable?

Somebody actually driven that ... hmmm... 'car' ?

So does that mean our RO will soon be a tyhooner

Hope so......
