Purchased a '96 4.0HC Chimp a few weeks ago after drooling over them for too long. Have covered a couple of thousand miles with no problems.
Easy to work on - even if you get a few cuts on the hands when sorting out the electric windows and removing someones rattling loose change from the bottom of the doors!!
Are there many owners around here on this site?? am looking out on the roads, i'm still grinin so don't think you will miss me!!.

Matt,

I was brought up in Burbage/Hinckley, so know the area well. I still visit, so give me a call if you are ever around that area.

Enjoy the car!!!!

Good area for TVR's I was born in Queniborough, Leicestershire and there are some excellent roads around (I personnally love the six hills straight)

Happy TVR'ing everybody - get to one of the East Midlands club meetings in Nottingham this year

As if it effected me?

You are what you eat, well better to burn out then fade away..opps I've gone..

In fairness the local butchers wasn't the cause, it was the cheap meat from the next village. My old butcher won the best butchers in the Midlands national award last year - top steak and kidney puds and game pies..ooh yea. 8 miles east pork pie land, three miles west pukka pie land - what more do you need to kill you..
