I've just been in the garage and looked up the chassis and engine number of my car.

They are:- chassis SA9DH35P3JB019316 and engine number NCK079.

Mine was registered August 1988

How do TVR's chassis numbers work then, slight difference in the letters before the final number but my number is approx 150 lower than CO's car which was registered three years before! I would have thought it would have been the other way round.
