After much umming and arring, head scratching and saving...I bit the bullet and bagged this little monster.

I parked up in the middle of nowhere to take the shots and a farmer appeared telling me to clear off lol.

You can't see the paintwork properly but it's black with silver flecks.

Asleep after a long days war.

She needs new engine mounts and the steering rack is leaking (and a few other bits are also weeping) but after an inspection by the TVR centre I got the green light :rolleyes:

First drive was the 60 miles home from North London and the JDPower exhaust sounds like world war 3 is going on when you lift off the throttle. It corners like a go kart and the brakes although a little vague stop you well.

Nice mate ;) ;) ;)

Just took the Tam for a service today and got chance to try the mic out in a better location...sadly the battery died but if you turn it up, you can hear the thunder (and the backfiring) without any throttle!

Better video of the exhaust noise...

The car now has decats fitted so it's even louder than it was before, other tweaks have happened including a lot of carbon/kevlar parts if anyone wants some pics?

A few pics...no more videos though. I found a disused business park right in the centre of Dorking so pulled up tonight.

I got rid of the old heat shield and polished the pipes up etc to make the back end look a bit better :)

I also stumbled across a guy who'd made a carbon transmission tunnel and carbon/kevlar door cards on Ebay, so snapped them up and spent a LONG time getting them to fit. The glovebox lid I did myself in carbon cloth as a skin of a spare lid.
