Lovely you got the best one!So a little update. The sale of the Tuscan fell through. I tried to find another one and missed out on two more. These TVR's sell very quickly.
I have since found one of the most reputable TVR company's 15 minutes down the road, so last weekend I spent a few hours testing and sitting in lots of TVR's and getting all the inside info.
It's safe to say once I herd the V8 that was it! So I have found a 4.5 AJP V8 Cerbera and placed a deposit!!

Just like a BMW M product then but much, much more of an occasion!I hope you enjoy the car when you get it Lee, but I have to say I get to test 2 S1's (one yesterday) and a Cerbera at work and I do love the sound they make but the build and ease of repairing leave at whole lot to be desired and if you can believe all you read, hear and see on TV (Top Gear) they do need a lot of TLC. The Cerbera's owner recently had his engine replaced as a matter of course, apparently it is usual at a certain interval?

Does that mean my bargain find is going on the Audi?@David sure is, and its included.
@David yeah i have put that plate on the audi and left L33 SXE on retension for the time being.I hope you enjoy the car when you get it Lee, but I have to say I get to test 2 S1's (one yesterday) and a Cerbera at work and I do love the sound they make but the build and ease of repairing leave at whole lot to be desired and if you can believe all you read, hear and see on TV (Top Gear) they do need a lot of TLC.

As you have said Lee, they sell very quickly and that speaks volumes for them. A very sought after motor, says it all really.!@David yeah i have put that plate on the audi and left L33 SXE on retension for the time being.
Spot on, This one has had a new engine fitted (You know me not any engine normal engine). They need a lot of fettling and a lot of caring for. The build quality is nowhere near that of a Bmw but then again the TVR styling is immense and that's what draws me to them. The community is very close knit just like the zed guys. They just ooze character
I'll need to get that exhaust cutout valve so I can hear mine over yours!I will indeed @t-tony. I believe there is a meet later this month. I'm still staying a part of the community so I'm planning to come along to most meets.

I've followed @Lee before and messed up my gear changes because I was too busy listening to his engine and ended up changing when he did.I'll need to get that exhaust cutout valve so I can hear mine over yours!
I've been tunneling with a few and had to look at my rev counter as I couldn't hear my engine even with a cat back system over the roar these make!
