Nearly a week since the delivery of my car, smile still etched across my face, I find myself already dipping into the accessories market. When I got my keys there was the distinct lack of any kind of keyring, at all! decided that I would try to get a nice one locally but it seems Barnsley in not big on TVR merchandise.

Can anyone point me in the direction of somewhere where I can get a decent TVR keyring as I'm still carrying around both sets of keys.

Cheers - Rippers

Ebay usually has a few Tvr related keyrings and things, however this is what holds mine together

I found some nice car keyrings in London a couple of months ago. Each one bore a name and a pic of some fast car or other.

For some reason, the one with the Cerbera pic on it was called Gary. I had to buy it for Tam Lin, if only for the amusement factor.

I'm a bit wary about putting car keys onto a specific car make keyring - especially for a car as distinctive as a TVR.

If you lose your keys, there's a good chance the finder will find your car before you find your spare set...

Don't most of the plippers have the TVR logo on though?

Plippers? New TVRs have plippers?

TBH I thought of that when I posted the first time - I had my Saab key on the desk in front of me and could see where my argument might not apply to the enormous electronic keys you get now.

I can get really nice top quality key rings locally but wouldn't there be a copyright issue with using the tvr logo or would you like something a bit different? If so what?

I've got some Griffith keyrings. Very subtle oval with the Griffith logo. Only good if you've got a Griff I guess.
Will have them at the Growl.
