Will all you Chim owners piss off back to your own forums and get on with your 'Barnet Manipulation' topics. Leave us to talk about proper cars..

I mean what is a Chim if not a Cerbera with a crap chassis, duff brakes, poncey reliable V8 and no roof??

Ducks and runs

davidd has a point, if I wanted to talk about Griffs and styling products I would go to a fiat X19 forum.

I use Toni and Guy. The Re-build It shamppo is quite marvellous, and I simply can't go to work without using the Mega Depth Shine Conditioner. I fear that the small hairbands I use (Sainsbury's own) are quite fierce on my soft locks though. Any tips?

I am not surprised you are protective towards the X19
you own one with a rover engine and a body kit....

I would rather have a a 3 course meal served in a nice restaurant than a 5 course silver service in a motor way service station.

That's it I'm going back to the Chim section, no more abuse for you lot ( I hear you into self abuse anyway )

Seriously though, I like Griffs but could not eat a whole one ( sorry it had to be done )

What you are saying is that you know your car is shit but think it looks nice?

Now the separate forums are gone I guess we'll have to join forces against the common foe

And I don't mean the Popular Peoples Front

Who cares if you own a Griff or a Chimaera the main thing is that you actually own a TVR and that you are in a supercar that not many other people will own.

Bumped into a chap @ D.Geralds who had one of EACH!!! and to quote him: The Griffith is like a Ballet dancer to the Chimaera's Morris dancer. Well apart from nearly cancelling the Chim, I kinda got what he meant.
But he went on to explain that he drives the Chim every day & couldn't contemplate life with only a Griff, definitely a weekend car. Think about useless
headlights, o so low driving position, harder ride, and then factor in the winter that we are already deeply into and the comfy chim looks a far better proposition for most people, masochists apart.
But if you think a Griff looks nicer....
