I bought a Griff from Tony a few years ago.
He asks that you make an appointment before you go to see the car as he stores a lot of them locally and will bring it up to his business/ home address so that you can view it.
He let me take the Griff for a test drive on my own which I thought was a nice touch and the car was prepared to a very high standard. The general impression I got having had a look around a few of the cars he had 'out' that day was that he does deal in good quality cars- I didn't see any 'tired' examples up there.
Price wise- I don't see that he prices his cars any higher than any TVR specialists. The Griff I bought was top notch and I don't think I paid over the odds.
He is also a nice bloke. Very friendly and no pressure. Whilst he is not a TVR Specialist- he sells plenty of other cars- he does seem to know a fair amount about the marque.
Worth a look I would say.

Thanks guys, they are fairly local to me and have 3 in at the moment so hopefully a good selection. Thanks re the comment on the black Cerbera, interesting as to why it has hung around soo long. I guess it depends on if you like the original lights or not?.
Does anyone think that the Modified lights will reduce the sale value in future? - not bieng original spec etc etc.

It has got original lights from memory? The later cerbs have the 'tuscan' lights. Does anyone think that the Modified lights will reduce the sale value in future? - not bieng original spec etc etc.
Gazza i didnt realise that!, do you know when they introduced the tuscan lights?. I know they changed rear lights, Angled number plate and Tuscan seats in as standard but didnt know they did the front lights as well. Sooo much to learn. I was after a T350 but due to a forthcoming change in family situation the Cerbera has to be the vehicle of choice! What a tough life!
The lights stuff isnt that straightforward......
AFAIK:-
The 4.5 model went from front 'MG' lights to unblended tuscan lights when the lightweight was introduced in 2000 ish. Then in 2002 they went blended. Late in 02 they angled the rear plate.
The S6 stayed MG style the whole time.
I think the 4.2 is slightly different again but I forget the detail!
