That really does look lovely.

How come the vents do command such a premium ? Because of there exclusivity??

Just curious

Forgive me.
No.... A pre-Jan'06 MK2 Targa came with the "Baboons Bum" Dash, Post Jan'06 MK2 Targas came with the "Curvy" Dash . All production convertibles had "Curvy" dashes ,starting Sept'05.Although early ones are slightly different (Hazard warning light position).
The "curvy" dash and wiring loom were known in the factory as "The Mk3 Dash" but a MK3 car (Targa or Convertible) never officially existed. Hence the fuse box being different and undocumented , since the wrong handbook was knowingly supplied by TVR.

Enjoy.
Certainly am. Fixed grin does not quite suffice. smile
Soundtrack is sharp, crisp, excellent, and clears the pigeons and crows off the fields for miles.
Waiting for my EU subsidy to come through .... crop scarer.
The pheasant in the garden is stone deaf and stupid with it, so just looks at this moving hedge on wheels with the same vacant outlook it directs towards the cats, who as a result have decided he is not sport anyway.

I have yet to do the multi-storey car-park BMW alarm test - the Sagaris holds seven on one floor as it stands.

We are amused.

She's covered from head to toe in what I believe to be Paintshield.

Was just back from a drive and - I hesitate to add as this will seriously affect my reputation - washed her down from any dust that might have accumulated.

And then there were three!!
She has certainly been cared for.
Did you use a dust cover when in the garage?
And if out and about, what is the best cover when parked up away from home?
Apart from several feet of concrete in a car park ......
