(which is another way of saying- I know this isn't retro but please stick with me on this  ) Tonight I will be mostly collecting a TVR Sagaris in order to have a little play in it and write a few words. So no other reason for posting other than to declare I am a jammy sod. ;D and the tenuous link to one of my other threads in which many suggested that the TVR still embodied retroness in a modern world. Although obviously I will be posting pics and thoughts later. |

Do you need to drive it to know what it's like? Surely the same as all TVR's - frightening, smells like a boat factory, breaks down with alarming regularity  Top blagging tho'  |

lol. It's actually been a couple of tough journalistic weeks- the Cayman S and Z4 M Coupe last week and now this. Shame it doesn't pay the bills and hence I still have to have a proper job!

Well, I made it back home in it. By golly is it a touch warm in that car!! No aircon and the blowers just seem to take hot air straight from the engine bay and then blow it in your face constantly.
Now to sort you lovely folks out with some piccies. :-)
