I've had a weekend car for years, it's always been an Elise though.

With an ever increasing need to squeeze the kids in too, I've been scratching my head for sometime to identify a car which was still an event to drive but would also have a bit more practicality.

Was pondering a 911 or an Evora, but then I made the mistake of driving one of these - so I ended up buying one!

I miss the open top driving, but in every other way, it's awesome! The noise is incredible, it's very practical and I think looks drop dead gorgeous. It's yet to break down, neither has it tried to kill me!

Very nice!

Did TVR make any LHD versions?  Over here I can only register an LHD model...always wanted a TVR, loved the Sagaris

One or two I think but not the Cerbera

Looks stunning! Enjoy :-)

Gorgeous :clap:

 

Bet it sounds good too. Enjoy!

So what is it then?

_{Not what I expected.....but nice.}

More pics please  :clap:

Very nice....i love the sounds of a TVR..  

I have a mate with a Cerbera, beautiful car and sounds amazing. It's cost a small fortune to run and struggles to go long without breaking but it does have that extra something, certainly turns heads. 

It's a 4.5 AJP, decatted, remapped, short induction pipes and Nitron NTR's. A real event to drive and I love it! The sound is incredible, constant pops and bangs too.

I expect things to break on it, but have done 1,000 miles in a month and it's been 100%. Chassis and electrical gremlins are the main worries and I do expect the odd frustration over time but am prepared for that.

I swapped over from Elise's as I wanted a 2+2, drove one and fell in love with it.,

Will post up a few more pics when I have some time!

Lovely.

 

And bold of you to grasp the TVR reliability nettle. I like the engine bay sticker.

What's the black cable thingy on the side of the transmission tunnel?

Thanks.

It's a lumbar pump for the seat, for some reason it's marked the carpet both sides. May try with a steam cleaner as already had a go with interior shampoo.

You can buy full interior carpet sets (I was messing around with the drivers carpet in the pic) but I imagine a bit of a phaff to fit.

Brings back memories, scratching like feck after doing interior/dash work and getting fibre-glass itch!!

Fastest I've driven a car was a 4.5 I think.

Good luck when the **** hits the fan.

Update: nothing's fallen off yet!

I've bought some original fit RL7 wheels as they handle better and aren't made of cheese. Still delighted with the car and getting a fair bit of use out of it.

Good news!  There was an event not long ago at Oliver's Mount here in Scarborough and a few TVRs turned up to go round the circuit.  They sounded amazing and certainly pleased the crowds on the day.

 

As for the reliability thing, you might have struck it lucky and got a good one.  I know that for some people, running a non-VAG car equates to automotive suicide culminating in a roadside scene of steam, smoke and utter misery.  I admire your spirit and that you have gone with what makes you happy - long may it last.
