Dizzee Rascal Flexing his love for TVR's ?
Discussion
s sake!
They've taken a while to cotton on! I mean afterall chavs like 'loud things' and what better than a TVR?
Was quite funny the other night - I started up my Sylva to clean the cobwebs out. It might not be a TVR V8, but on twin carbs, lumpy cam and a side-exit track day exhaust it sounds like the real thing and one of the deliquents next door started revving his mk4 escort with a dustbin lid exhaust. Some people don't when they're beaten.
Back to the original topic. The bling culture is bad news for any car maker, maybe it shows some originality that he hasn't gone for the usual Escalade, Range Rover Sport or Bentley. Driving through Essex and North London I honestly see more Conti GTs than Escorts. The thing is, I think I prefer the rusty Fords - they certainly have more class.

Ditto. have a few in my area who try to sound off against me. Funny thing is, half the time i haven't even blipped the throttle. They get very upset when I do..
Probably was bound to happen eventually, the Sagaris does look mean, and that it was rap is all about in the eyes of those who don't really know what it is about. Ah well, just have to make sure Sagaris owners don't sell their cars to those that might bling them up..

Heeey my Chims got subs and i'm certainly no chav! Nothing wrong with enjoying a drive with your favourite tunes on...loud...to be heard over the engine that is!
I must say I don't care for his music much though

Personally, I would only put subs into a TVR if it was my only car, but no there is nothing wrong with subs if they're to improve the quality of the sound rather than to make as much noise as possible at the traffic lights
I honestly dont think I would use the stereo much in a V8 TVR anyway
