Spotted by my son actually on his way down to Portsmouth, similarity between our plates struck him. Mine's T5 LTR - Does it belong to anybody on here? Rich...

Hi rich...I keep spotting Tivs all over the place and naturally assume they must be PH members...like the yellow chim in N Shields(Newcastle), also saw a dark blue Griff500 (v-plate)in Jesmond, but i shy'd from saying anything about the 500...cant stand the silence!
......It’s a shame it’s not compulsory to be a PH member when owning a TVR...

......oh and I really love your wheels on the Griff...very tasteful

I'm sure R5 LTR is not a PHeader, I asked before as he parks in our company car park. In fact I think I am the only PHeader in our location as on a good day there are about 6 Chimaeras in the carpark and I've never 'met' one of the owners on here.

Is that a Union Flag under the side repeater Darren? Didn't think I'd like white but actually looks really good on your Chimaera.

p.s. Wife has D1 4LFA spaced like that on her Alfa and plod have never stopped her. Suppose I should get mine re-made as T 5LTR eh? Rich...

RichB,Excellent eyesight!,yes, thats a union jack,picked them up last year from an autojumble stall at the NEC classic car show-ther're the enalamaled metal type and look quite nice on a white back-ground.

White does look better than it sounds on a Chim, although it looked even nicer when i negotiated circa £2000 discount due to the paint colour! (more money towards performance hardware).

I really love this car , it's life enhancing , ok it smells like ferrets pi55,does about 12mpg and the handbrake has never worked.But EVERY time i drive it it feels like my birthday .
