I've had several 5 litres, all had Imolas rather than Estorils. It was a factory option.
Many thanks, love reading about your cars.????????

Hi Steve,

I thought I'd reply to the thread having seen it whilst I was doing some research on the car before buying...having looked at 7 other TVRs I finally found one that ticked all the boxes.

W848 SVF lives on and is now residing in Warwick, I picked it up from James Agger this weekend and have been grinning ever since!

Looking pleased with myself



Tucked up in the garage and I'm pleased to say no drips on the tiles







I've made a list of things I'd like to do, but for now I'll just be trying to get some driving in before the roads get gritted. cool

Fantastic!

Glad the wheels have been returned to a proper colour. (Although I had Imolas on it).

I loved that car, if it wasn't for my bad back I'd still have it! Thanks for getting in touch.

That car was a constant in a changing fleet!

If I had the choice I'd have Imolas, I might keep an eye out for a set, to me it's how a Chimaera should be.

Funnily enough, my other car is a quick German hatchback!



The TVR stole the space in the garage laugh
