There did use to be one here: http://www.soi.city.ac.uk/~nick/tvr/tas_alt_pts_ls... but the uni has deleted the page by the looks of it. Did anyone save it anywhere?

Al, I wouldn't worry too much. Most service parts are easily available; think Rover V8 EFi (from SD1 or Range Rover), Ford Granada Mk2, Cortina 3/4/5, Jag XJ6 and that'll cover most things.

Nah... change the fluids, new tyres (in fact you could probably scrape an MOT with the old ones if the sidewalls are OK), free the brakes off, new alternator belt, grease the UJs, make sure the pods pop up biggrin

Alex - saw you out and about yesterday, Tenterden way. Seen you around Maidstone a few times too. Never seen a Cerb in that colour before - does look nice!

Good luck with the Wedge! Saw a red Wedge in Borstal on Saturday too - sounded very nice and not seen it about before, though I guess from the description, it was not yours!
