amongst others, 'Phazed' has dealt with them. I'm sure he'll be along in a minute or else PM him.

They are on a number of TVR Facebook groups. If you contact Odin Verpoorten on his profile he should be able to help...

Yep, I have had several things from them over the last year.

All good products and supplied within a relative timescale but not next day!

I did email them on a couple of occasions more than once and found that emailing the other branch gave quicker results although which one I can't remember.

I suggest you email both as they are well-connected.

I have visited their workshop in Hungary, which was a positive experience. They have clearly gone to great lengths to produce some quality parts for TVRs and I was impressed with their attention to detail and workmanship..

The whole project is currently on hold due to a chronic back(?) problem, Peter. I'm under the hospital (I'd far rather be under the car...) and awaiting MRI results.
And now I am seriously wondering if I will ever physically be able to get in and out of the car again... grumpy
Might have to trade it for a rag top so that I can just vault in over the door cool

(Anyway, thanks for asking, Mate)

Really sorry to hear that Rik.

You will have to get a chimaera then! Every cloud et cetera!

Speaking as a back sufferer for most of my life and obviously depending on where the problem lies but I found that strengthening the core muscles, (loads of motorcycle trials, Trail riding, Trail bike rallies and the odd enduro) paid dividends.

Best of luck for your back future, (Or should that be Back to the Future!).

Peter, please do not give up your day job as you would never survive as a comedian with jokes like thatbiggrinredcard
