yours was quite tasty as well - you have any problems getting in the car park? Didn't see that bloody centre kerb and ended up grounding the front of my car on it. Not a happy bunny!
My mate called me sad for leaving a note but what the hell!

Not sad at all, my first ever spotted...nice to have the personal touch of a note on the windscreen :-)

I've been there before so knew about those nasty kerbs. I drove down the ramp with my head stuck out the side so I could see the front of the car and the clearance. Its a big kerb hope it didnt do too much damage.

I do god knows how many miles a weekend and rarely see another TVR let alone one of the exclusive blue ones so thought I'd let you know I'd noticed - glad you liked my pathetic attempt at a PH smiley anyway.
Coming up to the garage ramp the nose end of the car sticks up into the air as you turn in so I didn't see the kerb at all, put a fair few deep scratches on the front undertray up to about the drivers wheel. Fortunately no-where near the sump or anything of importance, think they need to get a bollard in place.
What were you in Brum for? A drink or 10 on Broad Street for me....

Chims on Broad Street??? I live on Broad street, just round the corner from Novotel and i've never seen another chim up here.. In fact only ever one TVR, a dark grey sag on occasion... Did you take the time to blast through the Queensway tunnel??

I was in the velvet bar doing some serious drinking for far too many hours.

Yes I blasted through the tunnel, roof off giving it some beans . Lovely. like a mini tunnel run ;-)
