A beautiful sight. Great to see it in action.
What has become of this car? Where is it? Who owns/cares for it?

indeed, I also know all those video's, lovely car, maybe one day a classic TVR with big V8 would be good for me
no road tax and low insurance cost as I drive only once a week or so.

this looks like a CWR Titan but the picture says M5000

but the green car is really nice

The red car is indeed a Titan whereas the Green car is Peter Wheeler's 5000M. It was PW's car and Ben was allowed to drive it as he was a good friend of Peters.
The car is still owned by the Wheeler family and it's looked after by Brian Hosfield and Jon Greenwood who built it in their businesses which are still based at Bristol Avenue.

I assume it's kept with the rest of the car collection.

Brian and Jon would be happy to build anyone a copy if they wanted one.

Lottery!

it looks indeed very special, way different then the 3000M series (under the body)
must be a good drive, I mean even by todays toys and technique?
I think you could scare the lotus boys on track a lot
