Am I getting anal??
Discussion
Your not alone. I Spent Sunday with a box of toothpicks, a small brush and some touch-up paint. I then spent several hours going round the car trying to address the many stone chips, to the extent that I am trug to remove the front badge to get to a chip next to the badge.
So no you are not alone.
With TVRs it is simple, you either love them or hate them, and I doubt there are many owners that fall in the latter camp.

I've cleaned the inside of the wheel rims on previous cars, although I've not got round to doing it on the Tamora yet, (but it's probably only a matter of time!!!).
I have also been known to polish the inside bore of the exhaust pipe, to remove the carbon and make it shine!
By the way Lance, do you know if you're free to meet up somewhere next Saturday morning, so that I can take a look at the carbon fibre mod in your boot?
I've now got the roof bag from Leven which helps the roof panel slide in more easily, (and does so without damaging the seals/mohair), but it's still quite tight.

Lance,
I'm in Ashford, near Staines, so how about meeting half way?
I seem to remember that if you leave the M25 at Junc 10 and head down the A3 towards Guildford, there is a fairly large layby, not far from the motorway.
How about meeting there, (unless you know anywhere easier/better)?
If that sounds OK, I can e-mail you my mobile no., just to make sure that we both end up in the same place on the day?

Paul,
The bag was £50 from Leven. As Lance said, it helps protect it, (also useful if you're carrying anything as well as the roof in the boot), but it's still a tight fit.
Having said that, it does have handles on the long edge, which make it slightly easier to pull out.
Hopefully, the carbon fibre mods, the roof bag and Lance's spacers to allow the boot to open wider, (which I also want to see), will have the roof sliding in and out with no problems at all!
