Definitely not a supercar but there can't be many left in full working and running order?

The model name is on the decal under the door. The first figure looks like a 4. So a 400SE of a 420SE.

These cars are what got me interested in TVRs. Still the best sounding ones in my opinion.
Wedges are a rare sight these days, fortunately rarer still in magnolia!

There is one parked up next to the railway at Pleck Junction near Walsall, I have a feeling it might be the same one that was parked next to the railway at Aynho a few miles south of Banbury for a few years.

You must be very close to me. My brother in law owns the boat yard next to the Great Western in Aynho

Around 8.30 am?

There was a cars and coffee meet at Willow Farm near the A189. Three GTRs parked next to each other. I had a little play with two V10 R8s and a pair of GTRs on the way there - what a noise!

Not normally something I do but weather turned for the better, daughter back from uni was interested in going and nothing else planned so away we went. Pleased I did go - some lovely cars with great owners, no ego’s and loads of families out taking photos after the pub advertised it on their FB page. I got a few ropey pics I can post later if you’re interested 👍

Couple of Maclarens (720, 570), Lambos (SVJ, hurrucan etc), loads of 911s, GT4 etc etc.

Also, what is it with the trend of darkened number plates? Designed to stop cameras picking them up??

Oh, Saturday morning, about 730 heading Ringmer bound from Halland

A Maclaren of some sort, a few 911s and a Gallardo (possibly Huracan) all travelling together, at a fair old lick.

Nice to see but to one of the 911 drivers, overtaking on double white lines with a car coming towards you (me) isn't the smartest idea. Bozo. rolleyes

I’ve never seen one of these before and not quite sure what it is. Rare?

No not that close, I don't live there but drive trains through Aynho, the Fire Tender was in the yard there for quite a few years wink

Definitely rare as it's a '1 of 1' rotate

Outside the special Peugeot 205 garage. Not sure what it is or if it has the big V6 in it after some googling.
