2500 miles and not one TVR

[perthshiregriff]

just got back from holiday in the french alps, covered 2500miles through scotland,england,france and switzerland and never saw one TVR where is everyone. maybe cause i stuck to the motorways

[blueyes]

That's nothing! In the past 12 months, I've done 15k in mine and I've only ever seen one purple Cerb.

[chimyellow]

Same with me.. I did over 2k miles in mine and did not see any.... (until the weekend when I saw two).... and that is in the UK!

[j_s_g]

... Yet I ended up with a blue Tuscan following me to the Supermarket for a bit last night, I go past Trooper1212's Cerb nearly every morning, saw a blue/green Tuscan on the way home last week, and there was a lilac/purple Chim around last Monday when Jamer was testing my car out.

And that's just in Derby-suburbia.

j_s_g I saw a blue Tuscan last night at about 5.35 heading towards sainsbury's from that island, but I didn't see you.

I can sometimes see 5 TVR's in one day if I'm lucky

We've never seen any other TVR's on our European trips either.

Is that a bright turquoise one?

I was wondering whose it was, nobody has ever responded to my spotted of that particular colour in Derby.

And long may it continue! I love driving a pretty unique car.

His is rosso corsa red; it's generally in a hotel car park nearer the town centre (don't want to be too specific).

He was right behind me from the roundabout by Burger King & Pizza Hut to Sainsbury's. Couldn't hear him, though.

Forgot to mention that there's a Tamora in the car park here every morning, too. It's going to be very depressing seeing all the cars when I'm tivless shortly!

That'll be it - all other TVR's enjoying the 'Twisties'

Rosso pearl I'll have you know...

Current date for me to go back to civilisation is the end of april, so the Derby Cerbera count is going to take a bit of a hit soon.

[WildfireS3]

I occasionally see a Purple Chim in Newcastle heading out form town on the way to work plate numer ** NDY. Then in the summer there is a BRG V8S parked in the town centre.

"Penelope Pitstop pink" if you leave it out in the Sun much longer.

Sun? Which Derby do you live in?

[Mrs Fish]

We've had sun today, what are you talking about

in between the rain that is

[S3 Kieran]

Where on earth have you been looking? I saw a Chimaera on the way to work, and I was on the train! (alright, it was in a station car park)

Don't know if the geography helps - demographic divide and all that, but in the S/E there are TVRs everywhere - rarely a day goes by when I don't see one!
[Mel Gibson in Conspiracy Theory]....and if I don't see one, I have to go out and drive around until I find one....[/Mel Gibson in Conspiracy Theory]
