About time i posted a pic,car up and running after it needed a new fuel pump (Got a shiny new Bosch one from ebay for a very reasonable £40)
Pic was taken by snapper8v at the Cosford breakfast meet-mine was the only wedge (plenty of lesser TVR`s !! )
Some intersting non TVR stuff Dtype jag,old bugattis,integrales,cobras etcPlenty of positive comments about my car which is always nice

Ffwooar what a beaut. 
Cheers for the comments ,the car polishes up really well but closer inspection has some small stress cracks esp around the headlamp pods and on the edges of the front bumper.
Going to have a go at repainting the bumper in the near future (i did the cracked front spoiler and are pleased with my diy job)
The passenger headlamp pod sits lower than normal and acts up intermittently and in a rather strange fashion !
Switch on lights drivers side raises fine ,passenger side stays down but both lamps lit.
Switch off headlights drivers side lowers both lamps switch off...then a minute later passenger side raises then immediatly lowers (not lit) crazy eh?

You saved around £35-40 buying that pump , smart move . IMHO wedges always look fast even when standing still !Pic was taken by snapper8v at the Cosford breakfast meet-mine was the only wedge (plenty of lesser TVR`s !! )

Stuart, which paint did you use for the spoiler. Mine is getting ready, and it seems we have the same taste in colour Going to have a go at repainting the bumper in the near future (i did the cracked front spoiler and are pleased with my diy job)

Convert i got my paint from paints4u.com mainly because i had heard they are very good at working out ICI paint codes which tvr use.
On the vin plate my code was P420-KV54 which turns out to be an old rover group colour 1973 snowberry white
code is BLWT 4
They are not the cheapest £11 + delivery but i am pleased with the colour match.
Mightymouse having seen your 350i yours is in superb condition,are you still thinking about a 450se?
