apart from starting problem on my 4.2cerb 1997 car now runs like a bag of..
new coils, leads, lamdas, tune up, mil light still comes on and engine misses like a bad one.
all above bits replaced and ok for a while ie 20 miles if you are lucky, then problems restart.

I love the car but it has come to a point where I may buy an xk8R I dread the thought!!!!!!

I love my tvr sob sob and she is so good in bed.

Thanks

I am pleased to say that all the labour and parts they are fitting on to my car are free of charge.
They cannot be fairer than that.
Hoping to get my car back for the weekend OR ELSE!
Thanks for all the advice.

Please note that my son baby stag cub sometimes writes on here in my name. I must cut off his horns. When they grow that is.

He is the one who works at Dream Machines TVR weekends.

Stag's son,

Conclusion:

Ferrari 355's are extremely fast but then a cebera would p**s all over it.

End of story
