Really pleased with the colour as it changes all the time depending on light. A bit bright when I took these,fantastic at sunset as the car glows gold.

Wow another fantastic Colour. Rally like this one

I think TVR's can carry these type of colours and look good where other makes wouldnt suit it.

edited to ask what colour/colours is the interior

the interior is lilac and silver/grey which works well against the spectraflair. I remember seeing this colour at the motorshow and I dont think the lighting did it justice!!?

Yep looks cool (not as wild as mine though )

Agree these flip-flop colours etc only work IMO on TVR's...seen recently that Rover/MG are trying it on some of their cars....and they look awful on the roads

Hi Tin man,
Super pics & wonderful colour !!!You might be interested in something that happened to my T350c.
whilst filling up with fuel the chrome ring came away with the filling hose,and has damaged my paint around the cap,i now know of 3 cars this has happened to at the moment and i'm not sure what TVR are going to do about it,as i have'nt had my 1000 mile service yet so they aint seen it yet!!! so you might like to be carefull when topping up!!!!
The chrome ring is "stuck" on with what appears to be
Araldite, but neither of the two surfaces have been 'etched'in any way to allow the two part's to stick properly,(BIT POOR I THOUGHT !!!!) the car had been in the warm sun all day so this may have caused the "glue" to soften.
the answer to that is 'don't go out in the sun (my quote not TVR)AS IF!!
If there is any other PHers with the same little TVR querk, let me know.

Dave....(Halcyon midas pearl yellow T350C)
PS loving every minute of it ,i hope you are to!!

Re the petrol fller
Something that's been mentioned to me in advance of this problem is to use a couple of dabs of JB Weld Epoxy - from Halfords etc. Fixes anyting to everything as far as i can make out. I've used it to repair broken plastic hinges on a freezer lid - five years ago now!!, Fix in engine bay panel fixing studs (cerbera owners will know the problem) and to glue a clay tandoor oven used several several times a week at temperatures of 200C in the oven and with all sorts of hot stuff inside it....hasn't even discoloured yet. Oh and it's petrol resistant.....
