You will have seen the article about the Bufori on the home page. Just for interest for all here, the guy that runs the company bought all the old stock of Chimaera bits when the Malaysian factory packed up. I visited the Bufori factory early this year whilst working in KL and it was pretty amazing to see bare Chim bodies, moulds & chassis & jigs stacked up.

The design of the Bufori cars is obviously up for discussion but one thing that isn't is the quality of construction - they do some pretty decent stuff with all carbon fibre bodywork.

Going back to the TVR stuff, I have pics and an inventory of the all they have (had - they were cutting up the bodies...). I did discuss bringing it all in with the guys at TrackvRoad but the view seem to be that it would be barely worth the shipping cost to do so, amongst other things. I've never posted pics on here but if someone wants to do that for me I will zip them & send them across.

Cheers
