www.carcomparison.co.uk knows about TVRs. It also knows about cooking cars. The compare A with B thing is sortof amusing.

For example:-

Vauxhall Corsa 1.2i 16v vs. Griff 500.

Corsa 299% cheaper
Griff 62% faster
Griff 332% more powerful ()
Griff 295% more torquey
Griff 234% more accelerative
Griff 287% more bhp/ton
Griff 317% larger engine
Corsa 18 insurance groups lower

Childish but amusing.

Yep, that pic was taken by Ted at Duxford last year.

(Must have been the year when the Corsa wouldn't start )
