Great stuff Jon- well done for having the balls. I fancy a T350 next. I don't care what people say about TVR's- I love them.

Looks great though. Rebuild? Whats involved + how much? I own a socket set...could we do it ourselves?a TVR
Got disks and pads that have been sat here for a month if you want to put that socket set to good use/ escape baby vomit?Looks great though. Rebuild? Whats involved + how much? I own a socket set...could we do it ourselves?a TVR

Pads, yeah easy job, no worries.
Cheers guys, yeah don't think I realised the size of Balls needed!
wasn't exactly counting on havig to have a full rebuild done whilst I was in ownership, but hey its TVR and these things seem to happen!
rebuild and service is looking like about £6k all in, providing no ather nasties are found! like worn clutch!
loving the car though, its great and gets so much attention....just not loving the impending financial pain!

How are you finding the non turboed/ b
ks noisy transition?Edited by Gingerbread Man on Thursday 16th July 13:36
Hi Andy,
god that image is so good, makes me want the VX back!
The colour is Ferrari Le Mans Blue, looks great in the flesh once its all polished up, still trying to build the layers of wax to get it how I like it!
Gingerbread Man - yeah miss the get in and drive-ability of the VX, but overall the noise and drama of the TVR is great. It was the fact that the VX was so quiet that i sold it, i even puta full miltek on it just before i sold it and it still didn't really help

Lovely motor sir! A friend of mine was looking at buying one, and we were amazed at how many had engine rebuilds at 15-16k! So he bought a Maser....

You've got two friends who were looking at buying them? Both of them brought Mazzers?Gingerbread Man said:
