Hi Guys,

Anyone on here know this car?

http://www.tvr-hhc.co.uk/UsedCars/view/205298

I start a new job and this has caught my eye as a treat and I think I'm going to call in to see it next week.

I've been to HHC a few times before and have met Tony and know he is a good guy so just info on the car if people have any.

Interested in comments on the rebuild, I've read Str8six are good is that true? I've had a TVR itch to scratch for ages and have not done so, and I think now is the time.

Cheers.

Str8Six is Jason Clegg (ex TVR ex Fleckletonite) and has a reputation as one of the best. As you say Tony is also one of the best.So I would reckon a really good car, that is if you like the red interior(but that's a matter of choice) and it does make a statement.

Hi Gman,
I saw this Tuscan the other week in HHC. If I had had the money it would not be there now. It looks a beauty. The red mulberry leather looks superb. The entire car is cosmetically beautiful. Hope you have a test drive and if everything's OK you should have a good car.

Don't suppose you noticed if it had A/C?

Hi GMan,
No I did not notice - just liked the look of the car.

Not to worry cheers anyway. Just emailed them, so hopefully will get a call tomorrow, if I have not already called first.

I would still give Tony a call, but that car is in my garage in Aberdeen now, I picked it up a week past on Saturday.

FWIW its exceptional, and I am in lurve.bounce

The whole buying experience with Tony was A1, and although I have had a TVR before, and various british cars, I needed confidence before taking the speed 6 plunge, and Tony was so forthcoming with knowledge and advice, I went for it.

Also to follow up after to see if I had any questions or problems on the way home was a nice touch.

It doesnt have A/C - Isnt that why the roof comes off tongue out and the red is quite dark, extremely yummy, and yes, it doesnt photograph well either.

Very similar interior colour to my T350, you're right in that it's very hard to photograph well, either looking too blood red or too dark.

Dave L,
You must have picked it up after I saw it. I was in HHC on that saturday and "your" car looked superb. I really like the mulberry red leather interior. I saw it around mid-day and heard a guy on the phone talking about someone from Aberdeen coming in for his car. Hadn't appreciated it was for that one. I've got one - bought it late last year and have not really had a lot of time driving it with the bad weather. Looking forward to the long and glorious spring/summer/autumn coming . . . . forgot I'm in the UK so it's probably going to shot it down every weekend.

I got the car handed over at about 11.30am then went away for lunch and then came back around 1pm before setting off so was prob there or thereabouts at the time you were!
I am soooo looking forward to the first roof off opportunity, roll on summer.
