Absolutely gorgeous car, Steve. Now drive it to that spot near Diabaig ( I know its not far for you ) and put your photographic talents to work!

[Spie]

Gorgeous car, congratulations

[peterpeter]

wow.
Stunning car.
Has it been lowered?? or is that on standard turbo springs.??

[getcarter]

Std springs

[cacatous]

Nice one!

The exhausts do look cool although they are just bolt on items that go over the standard pipes...

Is the 2K run in so because ou used to own a TVR?

[getcarter]

You can buy the tail pipes seperately, rather than part of the pack (code X54) - silly money though.

Me own a TVR? Never. Fabulous cars to watch and listen to (methinks the Grif 500 is the best sound invented by man), but I prefer going round corners on track rather than straight on (which they seem to do a lot of)... I'm more of a Caterham man (or was until I had to pay for the 911)

You are right at silly money...the twin tail pipes work out at £350 for the pair from porsche,,,also available for regularly aspirated 996.

Didn't the T350 post the fourth best time on Top Gear? I recall that went round corners rather well!

Besides this thread isn't about TVR, it's about your great looking car! Well done

That it might have done, but I got a very close look at a brand new T350 at Bedford autodrome a few weeks back. I was shocked and disappointed at the appalling build quality. 4 rivets on the rear glass panel had already dropped off. The rubber seals on the door/window didnt fit. The paintwork look rough around the door hinges.
I keep promising myself Ill get a tvr one day,because I think they look and sound awesome. but considering that this is the latest model, I am still unimpressed. They are getting better, but they are nowhere near as good a package as the 911.

Can only echo what's already been said, the car is absolutely stunning, Steve.

I think that's one of the best colours for a Turbo, there are some colours that 'just work' and seal grey is definately one of them

Congratulations,

Graham
