You turn that left or right to open the doors; no handles on the car at all

It actually feels quite a bit quicker than the BMW but doesnt feel built half as good; but was expecting that

The driving position is lovely in it; everything feels in a natural positon and the gear box is so tight and such a short shhift

Not given it a great clean; will try and finish it off tomorrow but goes into bodyshop soon so dont really wanna polish it before it goes in as makes it more difficult for him.

Also booked its 9,000 mile service for Thursday; who knows how much that will cost!

Its definatly growing on me but although the wheels are original and you want to keep it like that, i think you should change them. Perfect otherwise

Yep; actually i think the whole ignition area is from a corsa; aswell as the Key even has an opel badge on it Also the electic window switches are from a corsa. I expect there are many other parts from all makes and models on it to be honest

Love those spider wheels; but to be honest i quite like the ones on there; the only time i will consider changing them is for other genuine TVR wheels and keep the originals aswell
