I've only been to one myself but people seemed to be turning up at all times. If I recall I was about 10am and there was loads 50+ when I arrived last time,but I'm aiming for that sort of time again.

Thanks Jason, if only I'd've known how easy it was to fill in the boxes, I would've done it from the start!
Funnily enough, there is a Twin Cam Minor running about somewhere... with a Fiat 131 lump in it hehe

Quick update:


Although it has not been possible to have the new TVR Griffith we have managed to obtain the Cerbera development car to display, which has all the running gear of the new Griffith - Thankyou Les and TVR Manufacturing for allowing this. If this was not enough we have two Tee Shirts signed by Les Edgar and Gordon Murray in front of the new Griffith at Goodwood to auction, plus a few other very special goodies that you will be able to bid for or have a chance of winning in our raffle.

There will be a selection of glorious TVR’s throughout the ages on display with a special reserved area for owners of Sagaris cars, workshops, competitions, rolling road, prizes for the best turned out TVR’s in a mystery concours competition and lots more. Plus we have exceeded our own expectations on the number TVR related traders this year, so far the following have agreed to attend:

Racetech
DG sportscars
STR8six
HF Solutions
DTEC
SD Autotec
Central TVR
Platinum Alloy Wheels
D&C Trim
Surface and Design
Chips Away
Formula Clean
Fantastic Roads
Damage Undone
Option 1
Neil Garner Performance Engineering
TVR Car Club
Wiltshire Air Ambulance
Lamborghini Owners Club
Italian Job coffee
Parsons Nose Burgers
Natural Flames pizzas and churros


Others who could not attend have donated prizes to help raise money for Wiltshire Air Ambulance. There's a huge list of raffle prizes and goods and services up for auction.


Gates will not open until 10.00 to allow traders to set up. Please follow the TVR signs which will direct you to a side entrance at Neil Garner Performance Engineering, Kemble, SN16 9SH.

If anyone is coming from the east there is a few of us meeting at Wheatly Services near Oxford at 9am for the drive down to Neil Garners.
Would be good to get a few more .

The mule was interesting. That engine fitted fine into a cerbera chassis. Straight through pipes? exiting underneath level with the back of the doors. It was loud when running biggrin





and sorry - didn't get your name but a Cardiff owner, first non TVR company person to start and rev the beast?



Standard ford throttle body, cosworth own ecu with software.
Apparently TVR/Cosworth have tested other throttle bodies, intakes and aftermarket options available so 'are fully aware of the performance of these'.

Yes, a great day and thanks to Dave (Byker28i) for some great pictures.

Really chuffed to get the runners-up concours prize as I didn't do anything special to the car beforehand!
