I used to drive across from Huddersfield to Christopher Neils (in Northwich). They've just thrown in the towel with TVR, though, so your nearest dealer will be Harrogate Horseless Carriages. Have only dealt with them for the odd wheel or so.

Oh, and here's the RAC vehicle-check data on the car (which makes for hilarious reading):

Manufacturer: Tvr
Model: TUSCAN
Body type: car derived van
Colour: Multi-colour
Fuel type: Petrol
Date manufactured: 08 June 2000
Number of previous owners: 4
Last owner change: 14 July 2004

And welcome to the club.

H L Gorner in Wigan would possibly be your nearest dealer see www.hlgornertvr.co.uk/home.html for details.(You can check out my new baby while your there the 02 rolex blue one I pick it up on 10 days or so!!)

Thanks
Howard.

Harrogate Horseless Carriages are you best bet. 01423 561666. Gareth will look after you. Don't forget to blip the throttle a few times on your way in and out of Harrogate - that glorious sound echoing across The Stray.

After all I said you decided to go ahead?

Good man.

10 days what they doing, rebuilding it FFS?

Tell them you want it for next weekend!

Nice colour by the way Rocky! Reflex Purple is luuuuvley

hope you have lots of fun in it

Congratulations on the purchase.

I live in Leeds and my car is currently over at Gorners for a service if that gives you any pointers. I've used the factory in the past but they were not taking service bookings when I tried a few weeks ago.

Just my 2ps' worth. I also live in the area; about 10 miles away from Harrogate Horseless and I used to drive across to H L Gorner in Wigan.

This RAC data check is hilarious , this is what mine came back as:

Tvr
Model TUSCAN S FRONT AND REAR
Body type convertible
Colour Black
Fuel type Petrol
Date manufactured 11 June 2004
Number of previous owners 2
Last owner change 15 January 2004

I particularly like the fact that its last change of keeper was 5 months before it was built! I bought it brand new too so not sure about the 2 owners? I’m also glad its a Tuscan S at the front and the rear! Always a good thing

Pinch of salt needed me thinks
