lunchtime- Blue chim in dunstable town centre while in dad's griff (spotted too late to wave!). we were nearly the same colour! Also cruised through houghton regis but no sign of oggs, unless it was oggs beeping and out of the window...

Hi

I think that must have been me - T reg 4.0 dk blue chim. I didn't see you at all - I must have been messing with the radio at the traffic lights.

I've had the car a month & its just about to become my daily driver after new MOT etc & selling previous car.

Since owning it I've seen quite a few TVR's in / around Flitwick - a dk blue T reg griff, a nice sounding dk blue cerb, yellow & dk grey chims & an almost identical blue chim to mine.

My annual service is due in early Aug - where do you take yours for servicing?

Phil

ah - thought any hope of reply was lost! it's my dads griff - and he's only just got it (600 miles in the first week). hopefully dad will see this and reply. there are a few people locally who gave him advice buying - oggs, griffman, bb, gcerb etc... perhaps we should all have a local 'come and see the new cars meet' - - obviously it would have to be on a day that im visiting dad...

You were probably right to give up all hope of a reply since I totally missed you drive by in the Griff - I must need my eyes / ears testing!

Crikey - 600 miles in first week - loads of & at that rate the Griff could be in a service before my Chim!

Good idea to meet - I plan to check out / join the local TVRCC soon who I think meet at Harpenden, so maybe we could tie in 'meet the newbies' with this.
