Everyone knows the CErbera "Fast enough to create its own weather" comment, but I've just heard (On Pulling Power) the T350 described as "Handbuilt violence"!! which I thought was outstanding.

Are there any better than that?

Borrowed from another thread:

"I wish TVR was still for sale. It's my nephew's birthday next week, and I promised him a Mickey Mouse outfit."

All meant in the best possible taste and humour, from a TVR owner..

I think it was Clarkson that said,

"TVR, the only cars that fix themselves"

I always remember the phrase "seat-wetting performance" from some programme on Men&Motors a few years back. Whether it was a motoring programme or not I can't really recall....

... The Griff is not a car; it is a motorized orgasm.

The Tuscan is, which ever way you look at it, quite the finest stash of French porn ever to see the light of day.

And a Cerbera is like Messrs Raymond and Stringfellow deciding that high class lap dancing should be the centrepiece of a revised - and compulsory - NHS health check for gentlemen over 30.

Delicious.

Apparently the ubiquitous Mr Clarkson said of the T440:

"I'm too gay for this car!"

That "Mickey Mouse outfit" is called Disney. You should see their new concert hall in Los Angeles - 21st century great architecture, space age design, and magnificent acoustics.


I hope that Disney are more successful than TVR in inventing handbrakes that work properly.

Didn't Disney do Fantasia? You know, the long cartoon where The Devil appears on a mountain, Mickey Mouse makes old brooms hyper-mobile and the Dinosaurs meet their evolutional doom

Reminds me of something, or is it just deja vu?

I once read an article by Clarkson comparing the Cerbera to some Ferrari or other and he described the Ferrari as sounding like 3 tenors all perfectly in tune whilst the Cerb sounded like 2 lesbians fighting in a bucket!
