thought id take some pictures of my new T350,picked it up last saturday,sun was out so you can get a better idea of the nebular black paint.
had just been for a spirited drive before i took the pictures,gotta say its a fantastic car,extremely rapid,sounds amazing,& handles like its on rails,even driving slowly through town was great,not the kind of car to buy if you dont like attention,as most people point at you like slack jawed yokels,which some are where i live.hehe

so far im loving tvr ownership,had a few niggles,but i think thats due to it not being used much then driven 250 miles in 1 hit,needs a new starter motor,starts fine from cold,but not so well when its hot,windscreen washer jet pipes are perished,plus the interior fan wont work,maybe just a fuse,but it'll all be sorted under warrenty.bought it from bespoke performance in hertford,& they have been fantastic,mark & martin are great guys,its been a pleasure to deal with them,thy're happy for me to get it fixed down here at dulford,then pay for all the work,saving me a 500 mile round trip,top blokes.

could only upload one pic,the others i took today were over 2mb so wouldnt upload,which is annoying as they are much better,anyone know how to get round that,or alter an image to fit?

Congratulations!

Easiest with pics is to open them in MS office picture manager then reduce the size to 800 pixels. Save as and they should be small enough to upload. The site squashes then down to about that size anyway.

Washer jets I replaced with a new 'flat' unit with integrated unit from eBay. Looks much better IMO - not ideal but better than those loopy things. Also fit a valve in each line.

Buy Graham Varley's book also, I think he has a couple left over. It's an essential for niggly bits.

yeah,its nebular black,looks amazing in the sunshine.
ive got a different opperating system,ubuntu,so no ms at all,tried a few things to decrease the file size but to no avail,very annoying,i'll put up some from the previous owner,cant see the paint that well in them though.
went for a drive today along our seafront,its roughly 2 miles long,so good for a pose,traffic was heavy as well,felt like a celebrity,not mant tvr's down here,never seen a t350 or sagaris,just a couple of grifs & a chimera,it certainly got noticedbiglaugh
happy days!
