Yeah it's an awesome looking machine.
The driver in the video is only 20 years old!
The video was shot in one day around Surrey and London by a friend, apparently some of the tracking shots where done with him tied to the back of a Catherham and others where achieved by hanging out the window of a BMW.

Love that car!
Its reckoned build quality is better with the Russian in charge. Also comes with 3 years warranty now.
4 year old Porsche Turbo or brand new Sagaris, interesting question( ie about the same price)

well have to say: awesome machine, spec and road presence- 
Would LOVE one (in black please Jim!)
Clearly an animal of a car- would have been far more impressed to see it tearing up the nearest track..
BUT (flame suit ON)
Caning it around that town centre- NOT a cool thing to do imho
what a D1ckhead- there could have been anyone walking off that pavement..
The driver is 20 years old?
Hm- clearly needs a few words in his shell..

I think you will agree that neither of the above examples is true, so it is NOT a no brainer. I would still be interested in your opinion though minus the stupid smilies!!!

ps as for the driver I d'ont know his age but is a racing driver and seemed in control of the vehicle. I more concerned by some idiot driving at 20mph, applying make up and talking on the mobile phone

In a world where performance cars are looking increasingly boring ie 996/997/Boxster/M5/RS4 /Evos even the Gallardo(imho), its just refreshing to see a in ya face no holds barred brute. And unlike the gorgeous Fezza 430 its actually in a British road friendly size.

Oi!!!!
I will not have a bad word said about the Gallardo - I'll have a black one please.
The 997 IMHO is a bit tastey too.
It is great to see TVR still producing hairy-chested machines. It is also a great relief to see the the Russian influence seems to be moving the company in a good direction. As commented, build quality and reliability issues are being addressed which will hopefully only strengthen the company's ability to manufacture more brightly coloured bruisers.

As Racing Green TVR is located about 50 yards from the primary school where my 5 year old goes, I think I'll pop in tomorrow and have a word with the owner about his staffs "enthusiastic" driving.
I've seen 3 or 4 instances now where a TVR has lit up the rear wheels coming off the roundabout between the showroom and the school, at picking up/dropping off time so loads of small kids about, and that video is enough for me.
Time and a place and all that.
As for the car, awesome!
