A TVR in MY garage
Discussion
After about 15 years of wanting one, I have finally been rewarded with a TVR of my own 
My proper obsession started with hearing what must have been one of the first Tuscans rumbling down a narrow street in Cornwall, the contours of the body reflecting the setting sun. And then the comment: It's got no door handles
Now I am the new owner of maxx-waxx's imperial blue T350c and what a car. Just looking at it sitting in my garage is special, let alone starting it up. Driving it around is something else.
Picked it up in the drizzling rain and took my mate to the petrol station in it. Conversation went along the lines of:
Him: It's raining.
Me: I know.
Him: Have you ever driven a rear-wheel drive car before?
Me: No.
Him: It's got no traction control.
Me: Correct.
Him: I'm scared.
Start the car,

Thanks for the welcome guys.
I spent Sunday morning cleaning it, it was Maxx-Waxx's after all
, then Sunday afternoon and evening driving around with a mate in the dry 
Just amazing
All positive comments so far, the neighbours all love it! And I think there could be a couple of future owners in ten years time - two youngsters when I was picking up my mate in Derby eloquently described it as "the best car round 'ere". Started it up and could just about hear them say "I want one of those when I am older".
