Priceless! It was just on the tv. Being pushed along by a bunch of coppers and traffic wardens! The commentators opinion was that it was "not a good advert for tvr cars"
You don't say!

I saw one broken down on the outside lane of the M25. Caused traffic chaos.

The company my dad works for(rover dealer) had a TVR in as a part exchange, something didn't seem quite right with it. Turns out the wishbone(i'm sure it was that or some other suspension component) had rotted away, was only 3/4years old.

Must be fun owning a TVR. They do look and sound nice though.

It was a pretty old looking TVR though, but even the new ones arent renowned for their reliability
