Both of those last pictures show how utterly perfect the proportions of that car are. The window shut line curve meeting up with the gloriously feminine body line and the windscreen and roof sweeping back in almost one fluid motion. It’s a glorious bit of drawing come to life.

These Tvr shapes and the Cerbera in at least one case I know of helped to direct some people’s lives.
A head mechanic in his late twenties I know of who works on high end sportscars once told me the picture of a Cerbera on his bedroom wall as a kid is why he dreamed and then fell in love with cars.
I only got to know him because I wore a Tvr cap.
A great highly trained intelligent kid,,, obviously biggrin
A bit of grease is a good sign if the cars ready for summer and serviced up to its gills. Probably chip fat from the mechanics lunch biggrin
Crack on lads and more pics as it’s summer smile

My car has finally found it's missing sibling smile

Yes I agree on the boot - I went and checked and it is definitely shut - think mine has always looked like that but awesome detailing on yours cool

You clearly have good taste smile. I sometimes think the colour of mine looks a bit flat, but when it's clean and with the sun out it looks much better.

I found changing the alternator an ok job. Managed to maneuver it out through the aircon pump space by undoing the fuel rail bolts about 5mm, which just gave it enough space cool

Best pic?

The lighting is terrible. The location is drab. The passenger window glass is dirty and either the boot isn't closed fully or it doesn't fit properly.
LucyP who's never owned a TVR...provides their expertise again

dark eh, poor lighting, boot don't fit (was open slightly)

Nice - something about a washed out background sets off the red

A good wee run out today.

Looking north - over Port Glasgow, The Clyde and up north to the Arrochar Alps.



then over the top by Loch Thom and down to Largs.



I don't normally do single tracks - since you can't pull off the road like "normal" cars, but I only had to reverse 3 times today to find a passing place. smile

Not my photo, but my car: photo taken at Castle Combe, 7th July, the annual Magic Day charity event with the Under 17 Car Club. In the driving seat is Lucas, who's in his early teens, getting to grips with where the minor controls are, before doing a couple of laps out on track. The picture taken by his proud Dad, who sadly didn't quite fit in the back...
