Meant to add -- those wonderful easy-access Citroen wing mirrors....
From a TVR point of view, yes, as they didn't install the mirrors to the door like Citroen designed them to be on the CX (which are a doddle to remove and refit!) But how about the S1/S2 bunny ear mirrors? Surely they're worse on account of the fact you can't see out of them? laugh

It needs a more powerful engine, stronger transmission, better suspension and brakes. It was definitely done on the cheap compared to the models before and after it. Or to put it another way - the later models built on the success of the S.
To be honest, I thought you'd addressed those issues! hehe
