Some right ole good funny buggers in here what cheer me RIGHT up you know.

 

I'm not an aggressive person at all, and love forum banter and nonsense, and that's what was originally intended here..

Good words Matty lad my good man.

Have a man hug on me.

Just 'gets my goat, and can't stand just rolling over; to have my tummy tickled' and say nowt so to speak.

I started this thread in all innocence trying to create a bit of a laugh and banter following on from the other two TVR threads, and that is all, no more, and no less.

 

Anyway, strange cars these TVR's. Really don't know if I like them or not, but they are part of our heritage I suppose.

 

Anyone know just how many other manufacturers parts bins where raided to produce them btw?

 

The only time I'd taken an interest in a TVR was on Grant Turismo when they were so fast you just spun all the time. Then I became friend with a bloke that has a Cerbera, I kinda like it. Looks beautiful, sounds stunning and obviously goes well but sadly spends most of its time on the ramp being fixed. I suspect it's a labour of love, he says he'll sell it once it's fixed then cant bring himself to do it when it's running well. I know along the way the majority of the parts bought from the TVR parts specialists have the part numbers scrubbed off them to disguise what car they are originally from so they can carry on with the big mark ups. Land rover & Rover seem to be popular iirc, also 99% sure the indicators on the front are from a Optare Solo bus.

You're kiddin' me?

 

You do realise I'm going to have to go both TVR AND bus spotting now?

 

Dunno if they are, I reckon the look very close, but then they are a fairly simple design!

 

Dash vents deffo the same though
