Uhhhmmm ...IMHO ....Naay!

It would perhaps look a bit ....naf!

Sounds great anyway and the more ignorant onlooker wouldn't know whether it's V6 or V8.

I fired mine up last night and I heard my neighbours kids say "I love the sound of that car".

I saw hundreds of these in all variations at the Beulieau(speeling) autojumble a couple of weeks ago...

I decided against it....

I have the Stainless sports exhaust, the best thing is that the uneducated hear the rumble and ask if its a V8 as they think all TVR's are v8's...

Why should I shatter their illusions....?

While you're at it, add a '12V' badge.

I'm sure we don't know what you are implying Craig!

Perhaps for those of us who don't breakdown too often ...."God moves in mysterious ways"

As I'm usually on my own in my S, perhaps "back off child on board"

Perhaps we can get a bumper sticker competition going here?

Can the prize be a new fuel tank and sender unit please?

and MFI for the S1.... or perhaps not.

Actaully I like just the 7VR badge front and back, remember watching one chap looked at the badge at the front, round the back - still none the wiser.

I had a senior citizen do that too.

Wandered all the way around the car, then asked "is it a triumph"

The only relationship is that certain badges have a "T" and an "R" on them.

Humble apologies to any triumph owners..... but really!

Ok guys chill! Just a thought. I think I may just treat myself to a nice new gear knob.
