Are you admiting that you helped to vote these clowns in?? Glen

I am up for this venue Glen. If we can get enough people together maybe they will do a special price? We can always ask! I seem to remember that the rooms were about £100 B+B for a double - but they were very nice and the hotel has some great facilities. PH managed to get an area of the carpark roped off, which was useful. Glen

We are going over in May and I am really looking forward to it! What has anyone done about their headlights - I have got Xenons and I don't want to just put masking tape in the lenses? There is nothing in the handbook that shows how to adjust the beam.... Glen

Use it more often It only gets used at the weekends - got a mile muncher for the 600 miles/week that I do! I would like to use it more Glen

The last big PistonHeads meet was held here: www.whittleburyhall.co.uk Very nice. Mind you so was the price.... Right next to Silverstone too.... Glen

I am pleased that I am not the only one with this problem - if the hood has not been used for a couple of weeks, then it can take 2 goes to get it fully folded. It seems to be as the window is folded in to the storage compartment. Once it has been used once, then it is OK. No idea what a solution would be though... Glen

Also depends on what the car has been polished with. I have read on another forum that if they are polished with a product like Mer, then that can confuse them too... Glen

Chesterfield has one. And Bluelady. And Max........... And me! Welcome to the forums! Is yours brand new? If so, the running in period will be difficult as the howl at 4k only hints at what is to come! Don't forget the rule though: if the sun is out and the temp is above 0 - the top goes down! No running around with the hood up because it is cold! That engine (and heated seats) knock out enough heat to keep you toasty Enjoy - we all are Over 2500 miles of big smiles! Glen

I'll take a pic when I next see it - not been round here for a few days.... Looks as though he reversed in to something on the off side so the bumper is not clipped on properly. No obvious scuffs though... Glen

And now he has clobbered the rear bumper!!?!

From various discussions at the PH meets I have been to, PH used to be pretty much dedicated to TVR and has gradually broadened out. PetrolTed is very keen to keep the number of forums to a minimum. Mind you, I see that the Honda boys have just got a dedicated one Great site - Pie and Piston is always good for a laugh! Glen

Worryingly so sometimes!! He ain't keeping the car too clean at the moment so it is certainly seeing lots of use! Nice wheels! Glen

Thinking about it - I am torn between the SW PH lot who I know quite well now and meeting more people on here.... Decision is not easy!! Mind you, if it is icey and really really cold then the monster will be staying firmly tucked up in its nice warm garage.... Glen

Already seen it in Bristol parked just around the corner from my house - tidy looking car! Looking at it, it is certainly getting some use.... Glen

Shame I have only just spotted this thread - not been on here enough recently... How about a Jan or Feb meet for a meal to get Xmas out of the system? Alternatively, the PH lot are meeting up on 2nd weekend in Jan just south of Taunton. Glen

Went along to a Pistonheads gathering this weekend and a new AM Vantage was there. Looked and sounded fantastic but..... Poorly built interior, lousy shutlines, crappy seats and the owner said that it was not that fast Certainly didn't seem like 90 grand's worth up close. Very very disappointed.... Glen

Pleased that you are enjoying your roadster! I agree with everything you say about the lack of turbo thump in the back but I am looking forward to exploring the top right hand side of the rev counter when the running in period is finished. The Bose is not as good as I expected and I am really disappointed in it. Mind you, when the roof is down - who cares??!? Glen

Choptop Thanks for organising Saturday - great weather and good company! Good to meet you all! By the way - the PH'ers are thinking about a curry in Bristol during the last week in Bristol if you are interested, Glen

I'm pleased it was not just me Glen

Me and my other half will be there too. Hope the weather is good.... Glen

It is - and the Irish Gov't is far more honest about the fact it is a tax: they are reducing stamp duty on property and funding the shortfall with speeding fines.... Glen

4th is good for me too. Would be good to meet up for a bite to eat. I would need to be back in the Brissle area by about 3, so 12 is good! Sounds like a plan coming together! Glen

Roof up is for poofs ! The blue roof does look good so will get some pics when we next have the car out.... after the builder has removed 3 tons of gravel from in front of the garage!! Glen

How old is the car? Xenons going dim is the first sign of the units getting ready to fail..... Glen

It could have been one of these
