That's a great vid!

I'd forgotten how pig ugly the speed 12 was!

That is the Tuscan I've posted about before asking what happened to it. It was the one that went round as the demonstrator. I took it for a test when my S3 was being serviced at Team Central in Birmingham. People thought it was a space ship as it was so radical it literally stopped traffic and pedestrians as we drove around.

So what happened to it then. It isn't the 99AFR model I'm sure.

Nice to see the times when there was some interest in what was coming out next and how TVR would do in the GT races but all now sadly gone. I assume the Speed 12 is the one that was sold (the body/chassis anyway) at Track V Road recently?

There's still be interest if anything was coming out of the factory. Yes that was the one at TvR and it doesn't look much different cosmetically.

The Speed 12 is the same colour as my 97'Cerb, not sure how many use this colour. I know Poledriver's car is the same but have not noticed any other's.
