Hi Folks, I have just sold a gentleman a TVR and he revealed that he used to own both a Griffith 400 and a Tuscan SE that he purchased from Gerry Marshall and John Britten respectively. He sent me some copies of photos taken at the time (Late 60's) and it got me wondering if either of these cars were still out there? The Griffith 400 was registered 'FJB 294C' and the Tuscan SE (Which had been registered 'TVR 4'!) was 'XUR 265F'. It would be great to be able to let him know that the cars were still out there somewhere! Once a TVR nut, always a TVR nut it seems.....
Best regards to all, Tony

Morning Tony, sold a car, I am impressed. Hope all is well.


I can hear those worms trying to push the lid off the can.

No one I know, then.

Almost without exception all of my customers are Gentleman or Ladies, sometimes the two can become confused but that's life I guess! Of course Colin, you and Steve fall into a completely different category.....
