I'm sure Russell or Ian wont mind me answering this! I don't think there is an official start time as such. We normally get there about seven-ish and have some tea..

I believe there were around 30+ people there last month and most seem to arrive by about half seven(ish) and stay till around half nine or ten o'clock!

The weather seems good today so that might bring a few more out!

I hope that helps!

If you are considering going for TVR ownership I think you will learn a lot tonight.
As well as the Guys from Gorners several of our members are Factory employees and can provide a good insight into the pros and cons of each model including what to look for when buying on the second hand market.
For those interested in exhaust notes various demonstations of sports exhaust notes are likey to be generated.
Sad lot we are I know but there you go.

Good to meet a few of you guys last night. Particular thanks to Russell for taking me for a spin in the Griff.

Loan application form was faxed off as soon as I got home, so its just a matter of waiting a couple of weeks for the money and then the hunt for the right one begins !!
