Hi Guys
There are a few of us meeting at the M1 services at Toddington on the Sunday morning 8.15am to leave 8.30am they are the first services heading north after the M25 there is a coffee shop in the car park if we meet there.
If you can add your name on the list please then we can know how many to look out for.
Getting Closer should be a great event with some long awaited projects coming to completion which we all hope will grace us with there presence.
So Far I believe

If we see a trailer with a white Taimar heading north on the M1 we will give you a wave laugh

It is the annual Pre 80s TVR meeting covering cars from the early Grantura through to the Vixens Griffeths Tuscans we hope and the M series cars.
Great day for all to see lots of the older cars in one place that are an important part of the TVR story.
Even if you have not got an Older car its great to see as you will see cars that are extremely rare and some rare owners as well wink

Aha, tracked it down, about 25 minutes from home for me, so I will pop over and have a shuftie between my Snetterton track day on the 5th and the TVRCC track day on the 9th. Might even show my Chim a bucket and sponge in your honour!
