Picked my 450 up today and I now have the joker look perminently on my face!
Credit where its due as well, Mole Valley were superb. A lot of places can learn some customer care lessons from them.

Greetings

Welcome to the the club. The grin, however, is permenant i'm afraid!

Bravo........

Welcome to the party.

Cracking colour and love the faired in headlights - is it one of the last models.

Reminds me - must get the clear side indicators for mine too. For such a small change they make a huge difference to the look

'Ow do! Welcome aboard, chap. Feelgood factor won't go away, guaranteed

You're now motoring on a higher plane. You know it makes sense.

Hi, welcome to the club....the experience (and the noise) gets even better as the weeks go on.

If like me you can't leave it alone, don't worry, the left foot and left shoulder ache is only temporary.

Welcome to the club, don't forget to get a copy of Steve Heath's bible, and learn all you can about the car

Yes but be aware the grin factor ache stays forever.
It's permanent.
Hiya........................

Thanks all.
What a weekend, spent all day (and quite a bit of the night)yesterday getting to know my new love ( sorry, if the GF is reading!), roof down, sun shining/setting, that burble/growl/roar. Perfect.
Gradualy getting to know the corning abilities, its nice to have a car that just goes round with out leaning over and the amount of grip/traction is quite suprising.
TOday obviously was alot slower and its easy to see why you hear stories of cars ending up backwards.
Only a small leak as well which I need to get sorted but I think some water seal wouldn't go a miss.
Its the updated model so has different seats, suspension (I think), lights, indicators and full aluminium controls.
Going to be the start of a great relationship!

The grin is permanant, as is the grimace at the petrol station. TVR's are the car equivalent of pringles - Once you pop you cant stop!

Good Morning 225!

Welcome to the world of TVR! I am also a recent 450 purchaser, and love it!
Rather wet commute to work this morning, but lots of fun nonetheless.
Take my advice, the more you use it the better it will get! They don't like being stuck in a garage!!

Hi 225 you are in for lots of fun!!! welcome to the madhouse!

[225]

Cheers all. Hustlebabe, I have hada shell optimax card for a while now and am slowly building points. They are not overly generous with them and what you can buy but they did give away a few cars not so long ago so cant complain!
I noticed this morning the car looks more purple than blue, its a pearlescent paint but its definately more purple than when i picked it up
