Perhaps you'd like to explain? Or perhaps you think I'm trolling because I don't subscribe to the group think in here? If so, you don't understand trolling.

I have sent an abuse report to the company which hosts the Classic Parade website, mentioning the Griffith and Alfieri scam pages and the bogus range of colours offered. Also with a link to the Trustpilot 1-star reviews webpage, which are the ones you can believe. They have in the past acted quickly to take down a scam website.
Nobody can rent any colour of new Griffith. There is only one and it's not for rent.
Apparently they can according to the website.

Which is exactly why he’s taking it further.

Read it all again very slowly, and you’ll get there in the end.

Is there any need to be quite so rude and aggressive?

Care to explain what your problem with me is? You clearly seem to have one. Firstly accusing me of not having ever owned a TVR nor owning one now, then pathetic attempts to try and belittle me at every opportunity.

May I remind you of the posting rules? Because you are falling foul of at least one- bullying.

Yesterday I came across a shop that makes new old Griffith 200/400 FIA and street, also Grantura MK3 and some others, pretty cool pictures, chassis copper? welded and stronger steel, laser cutted perfect, you can also choose how strong, but I guess its gonna cost some...

and ow, personally I like those small old TVR's more then the new one they promised us.

yep, I gonna look it up for you, I thought I wait first, I had sent them an email about the cost approximately for a road version... but that was about 2-3 days ago, so can take a while, also lovely parts on their website to order.

The classic racing scene is where all the money is and TVR will win in the pre 66 class and why they were originally banned from competing against big manufactures back in the day, basically because they embarrassed the opposition.
So now they are welcomed with open arms a pretty cheap way to win at Goodwood wink

The cars look like pure winners. thumbup

They don't mention prices anywhere. That usually means "If you need to ask, you can't afford it".

I would guess knocking on for £100k.

What about a new Ford Escort MK1 or 2 built in North Wales with noend of options too. Again near to £100k and over for high spec race jobs.

mostly yes, or they can help, say if there is a price, then the tax collector wants a part of that advertised price?

maybe it can be a advantage for us, I mean those not loaded with bank notes hehe

but a bit frustrating it is, and I can't help eighter, did not have a response back yet and I'm not a caller, let alone go by in the UK :-)

so I hope that one of you that live in the near that TVR place, goes by and share what they then know, that can be via contact PH mail, no problem :-)

I don't need a FIA car, not racing them, just road and maybe occasional trackday (long time not done), but a strong rigid chassis as they speak of, I would like and a cage behind the seats why not, maybe bigger if nicely fits in the car the way you won't need a helmet... and some nice leather and alcantara, some nice bucket seats and a potent engine and brakes and, ow am I over my Budget already? hehe

I received an email with an answer today, I can't say too much about it..., but the price for such a work of art is of course a bit expensive, but it seems to be, not too bad, it also depends on what specs you choose, so there is hope.

Furthermore, a classic street car is possible, but then you need an old number to do it properly, for example a crashed or barn find bucket, such as TVR Grantura 1800s, Griffith 200/400, Tuscan, or Vixen where they can then find the number to use I guess.

In other cases, I think it will be seen as a new? perhaps as a kind of replica with a new registration, something like that is not nice for the Netherlands, for example, then it will be stamped with, for example, 500+ gr/km the higest number... but this may be different in the UK, read more favorable?

This will not apply to a racing car without street approval I guess, so then a fair price but then only to be used of the roads like tracks.

In short, good news for enthusiasts of these types of beautiful automobiles.

I doubt you would get much change from £150K for something like that these days.
