I've not bought from them, but i've been in a few times looking at their cars and he does seam to be very selective with his stock. The Tuscan's i looked at late on last year were all mint and his prices were fair IMHO

Cheers Paul,

PS - I love the colour of your Tuscan,

I know hes selective he said hed turned down a yellow T350 and an orange Sag, because of the colours. 2 of my personal favourites BTW.

So i assume you didnt get your Tuscan from him then

Nick

Mine came from London TVR, i had options much closer to home, but just had to have the orange one. My view was that if i'm going to have a loud shouty car, it needs to be in a loud shouty colour.... now all i need are those carbon cans!

Cheers

Paul

I've never bought from them but when I was having problems with crap shockers they were very helpful,especially considering I hadn't bought them from them

They've been going donkeys years which is usually a good sign, and they have Steve ex of harrogate HC running the service bit aswell. i havent had any direct dealings with them myself, but people i have spoken to rate them highly. Probably well worth a look

Nice stock and well prepared. Now with workshop.

John Waggit rebuilds classic single seaters in his spare time and knows his stuff - he's also been around TVRs for ages. Like Joolz says, workshop techs are very well qualified. Well worth a look and I think you'll be impressed.

He bid and bought my 350SX (Haughins Car) a few years back, thoroughly nice chap who knows TVR's inside and out.

Does anyone know where this car went/ended up? It was the original Haughins Show Car built into a 400 Shell, Silver with Bottle Green Leather and used to make the most fantastic noises from both ends... Kevlar Supercharged Drive Belt at the front and a Stainless Wedge Automotive System leading out back. hehe Registration No. when I had it was F973 DCW.
