I've always loved TVRs, but I prefer light weight and less power. My driving skills would be found wanting as I slid backwards into a ditch. I'm a terrible driver!

My mechanical skills on on par with my washing prowess (cars, not a personal hygiene admission). The old Buick heritage V8s do sound out of this world though, better than the TVR developed / built straight six engines, in my opinion anyway.

I sat in a VX220 before buying the R53, and would have bought it if I could have seen through the windscreen, instead of over it [emoji20]

How tall are you? I'm 6'1" and don't fancy looking like Noddy!

Brilliant thanks, I'll pop along to Murray Lotus in Edinburgh. Thank for the heads up, no pun intended
