That was how I saw it as well. 
Everyone knows that a TVR is the sort of car that needs constant attention and fettling. Plus it is pretty much 99% guaranteed that it won't start at some stage. I love TVR's but they are a royal pain in the arse to live with...fantastic when they are working though.
I'm never hugely worried about theft as I have the key and its STILL 50/50 if it'll start! Everyone knows that a TVR is the sort of car that needs constant attention and fettling.

Nissan Primera the dealer forgot to put oil in at the first service then took it for a test drive
Mazda 6 2.2D with the chocolate camshaft issue, that came back from the first service with what I thought was in limp home mode (they gave me it back knackered)...

Mine never started when I wanted it to!
I will always remember the time when I was moving house from the East Midlands down to Berkshire and the bloody thing wouldn't start. I was really looking forward to driving it down there...instead it got took on the back of a trailer to Str8Six!
I reckon that I definitely got a Friday afternoon car!
I'm really pleased that yours treats you well though.

Same here - I didn't read it as the poster having a pop at anyone. I think it applies to any old car which has sat around for a while and I'd assumed the poster had a vehicle which was a "work in progress"Everyone knows that a TVR is the sort of car that needs constant attention and fettling.
